Into The Abyss

More specifically: Covers have no creasing or wear. Spine is uncreased. . Pages are clean and unmarked and in excellent condition. ABOUT THIS BOOK: It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble there lies your treasure. Joseph Campbell. On a wintry October night in 1984 nine passengers boarded a Piper Navajo commuter plane bound for remote communities in the far north of Canada. Only four people - strangers from wildly different backgrounds - will survive the night that follows: the pilot a prominent politician an accused criminal and the rookie policeman escorting him. Into the Abyss is a dramatic tale of tragedy a coming of age story and a compassionate account of how four men resurrected shattered lives. Like Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air or Sebastian Junger's The Perfect Storm the book will trace the arcs of each character's life and fight for survival. It will also follow four men's transformative journeys from the depths of physical and spiritual loss to the riches of lives begun anew. Quantity Available: 2.

She was the answer to the problem that General Curtis LeMay of the USAF was looking for: A BIG bomber. The B-52 in 1955 entered the service of the USAF and as of 2016 she is still in service and on active duty. The B-52 had lived through the Cold War being on alert 24/7 in case the Russian Bear stepped out of line. The B-52 saw service in the Vietnam War of which Operation Rolling Thunder became one of the monumental programs in USAF history. The B-52 went on to service in the deserts of the Middle East in Operation Desert Storm and later in Enduring Freedom and Afghanistan. Through all this the B-52 has stood for the many revisions from A to H that have been done to her massive airframe and her cockpit which is now an up to-date glass cockpit. Of the 744 that were built 85 of the 'H' model still remain in service. Her armament capacity is immense. 50 years of service and many battle scars later still the B-52 remains the Queen of the skies of War. Quantity Available: 1.

More specifically: Covers have light creasing. Edges of covers have superficial edgewear and corners are lightly bumped. Spine is uncreased. . Pages are clean and unmarked and in excellent condition. Evidence of small amount of liquid touching bottom of first 12 pages. ABOUT THIS BOOK: To fly through the air to harness the power and freedom of the birds. This was mankind's dream and desire most arguably since crawling out of the primordial ooze. It would be centuries before that dream would come true. Aviation itself has only been around in aircraft form since 1900. The first airplanes initially were crude machines without much use or perceived use. In a short 10 years after 1903 starting with World War I aircraft became very useful and integral to war efforts. A newer design would quickly replace and cause the prior design to become obsolete in a matter of months or within a year. This obsolescence of aircraft repeated during World War II and later during the Cold War Quantity Available: 1. Category: Aviation; ISBN/EAN: 9781925449068.

Rick Bishop
Shady Lady : 1500 Hours Flying the U-2 Spy Plane
Crecy Publishing UK 2017. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Hardcover. 280 pages. PUBLISHING DETAILS: Crecy Publishing UK 2017. First Edition. CONDITION: The book itself is in fine condition and comes in fine dust jacket. More specifically: Boards have no wear rubbing or soiling. Dust jacket is in excellent condtion. . Pages are clean and unmarked and in excellent condition. ABOUT THIS BOOK: At the very edge of the atmosphere invisible against the deep indigo sky lurks a spy plane so sophisticated that it replaced the SR-71 Blackbird some 30 years ago. Its flat black shark-like skin deflects and absorbs all but the most advanced radars leaving it to roam undetected while silently gathering detailed intelligence. Considered a 'National Asset' the U-2 Dragon Lady in its various forms has been in continuous military service for over six decades. Indeed she is deemed so important that she has enjoyed three separate production runs at the super-secret Lockheed 'Skunk Works' each time emerging with new and highly classified intelligence gathering capabilities. Rick Bishop a former U-2 pilot takes the reader deep into the Black World of 'air-breathing' non-satellite reconnaissance with a revealing and detailed account of the trials and challenges of flying a machine widely acknowledged as 'the most dangerous aircraft in the world' as well as revealing the personalities and adventures of some of the elite cadre of hand-selected pilots who have the right stuff to tame the Dragon Lady. From the gruelling two-week interview process through early training flights to many exploits flying top-secret missions around the world and his eventual rise to Commander the author sheds new light on a world that is largely unknown outside the tight fraternity of U-2 pilots and support personnel.

Richard A. Hoffman
The Fighting Flying Boat : A History of the Martin PBM Mariner
Naval Institute Press USA 2004. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Hardcover. 250 pages. PUBLISHING DETAILS: Naval Institute Press USA 2004. First Edition. CONDITION: The book itself is in near fine condition and comes in near fine dust jacket. More specifically: Boards have no wear rubbing or soiling. Dust jacket has light creasing. . Dust jacket is protected in clear plastic sleeve. Pages are lightly tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Detailing a proud chapter in naval aviation history former PBM pilot Richard Hoffman has written the first comprehensive history of Mariner operations. This versatile seaplane was first deployed in 1941 during the Battle of the Atlantic when it helped sink ten German U-boats. The following year it became a mainstay of the Naval Air Transport Service as the first aircraft to provide a vital link between Hawaii and the South Pacific. In combat Mariners participated in every major offensive campaign from the Marianas to Iwo Jima and Okinawa sinking enemy submarines ships and aircraft. They also served as the main rescue aircraft saving hundreds of airmen and seamen in spectacular open-sea rescue operations. At war's end they were the first aircraft into Tokyo Bay. Yet the Mariner has long been overshadowed by its famous counterpart the PBY Catalina. This book corrects the oversight by recognizing the Mariner not only for its contributions to World War II but also the postwar years when it was involved with the exploration of the Arctic and Antarctic and the Korean War. Hoffman offers dramatic details of PBM fights with Chinese MIGs and patrol and reconnaissance missions. The author also highlights the seaplane's hazardous rescue missions with the Coast Guard and its service with foreign armed forces. Striking photos of Mariners in action accompany the narrative and a list of all PBM casualties is appended. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Aviation; Military & Warfare. ISBN: 1591143756.

ABOUT THIS BOOK: One of Peter Vacher's great passions in life is restoring Rolls-Royce motor cars. In March 1982 he was travelling in India on research when quite by chance in the grounds of a northern university he stumbled on the rusting remnants of an aircraft. It was a British plane but unrecognizable. Peter was intrigued. Initially thinking it was a Spitfire he managed to get the serial number from which he obtained confirmation that it was in fact a Mark I Hurricane R4118 which had flown in the Battle of Britain! For years he did nothing but the fantastic idea of bringing it back to England and seeing it fly again stayed at the back of his mind. In 1996 he decided to act and made an offer to buy the remains. In 1997 the offer was accepted. There then followed six years of wrangling committees red tape Indian Air Force involvement and much patient lobbying before in 2002 Peter was given 24 hours to remove the plane. Then the truly difficult process began of restoration - a worldwide search for parts careful reconstruction flight testing and finally finally airborne again. This is truly an amazing story a dream come true documented in words and pictures as it happened. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Aviation; ISBN: 1904943071. ISBN/EAN: 9781904943075.

CONDITION: The book itself is in near fine condition and comes in fine dust jacket. More specifically: Boards have no wear rubbing or soiling. Dust jacket is in excellent condtion. . Dust jacket is protected in clear plastic sleeve. Pages are lightly tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: "Life" writes Joseph W. Rutter "was all fun and games with very expensive toys during those bright June days in 1944." Rutter was a pilot in the Army Air Force and the expensive toys were airplanes--A-20 nicknamed "the Havoc" for the damage they inflicted. He had just completed replacement crew training at Charlotte North Carolina. Shortly thereafter he was flying with the 312th Bomb Group from Hollanida New Guinea over Japanese targets and across "unexplored" areas and life became more serious. "Wreaking Havoc tells the story of Rutter and his friends at a time when the horrors of war were matched by the energy and enthusiasm of youth. In innocent and understated tones Rutter relates hijinks and daredevilry his training stateside his first mission large-scale raids on the Philippines and Formosa routine low-level attacks on Japanese positions crashes mishaps and the deaths of friends. With a wonderful eye for detail Rutter gives the reader a glimpse into not only the air war in the Pacific but also the culture of the 1940s and the minds of the young men who found themselves far from home on the front lines. In Rutter's story of war the A-20 is as much a protagonist as the author. If the aircraft emerges as a pilot's plane--a joy to fly--it could also be a temperamental machine whose landing gear might collapse whose hydraulic system might fail and whose controls might suddenly malfunction. Rutter and the men who crewed the planes are quiet heroes whose approach to war combines the nonchalance of youth and the seriousness of men who have come close enough to death to take life seriously. From the pages of his memoir Rutter speaks to those interested in aviationWorld War II and the coming of age of a young man. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Aviation; ISBN: 1585442895.

In recent months the Tu-95 has been the source of great anxiety for the US with operational exercises coming close to American borders causing much consternation and raising eyebrows in the political world. This informative new history explores the final chapter of the Tu-95 which has not been covered by other volumes. Containing a lot of hitherto untold facts and shedding new light on the Tu-95's development history and service career it is certain to be extremely popular. Also included in this title are details of crucial target information and rare materials obtained in the course of many obscure missions. In recent times the type has again assumed a significant position in Russia's strategic bomber arm DA and the fleet is being upgraded to take new models of cruise missiles. Beautifully illustrated throughout with numerous photos from the latest exercises as well as vivid pictures of nose art and unit insignia this is one not to be missed by aviation enthusiasts particularly those with an interest in contemporary Russian aviation.
