Download or read book Flying Tiger written by Frank S. Losonsky and published by Schiffer Military History. This book was released on 1996 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book is the war diary of a Flying Tiger American Volunteer Group crew chief from the 3rd Pursuit Squadron. Much of the Flying Tiger history is written from the pilot's viewpoint. These brave pilots deserve much praise, but those who fixed the aircraft and kept them flying also have a story to tell. Though their story is perhaps not as flashy, it is quite interesting and very much in tune with the everyday spirit of that intense period before America entered the World War II. This book contains Losonsky's war diary, which is supplemented with interviews and dialogue, and includes over 200 unpublished photographs. This format provides the reader with a multi-dimensional view of the period. Flying Tiger will give aviation historians new insights into the days shortly before the Flying Tiger successes in late 1941.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was just one of the countless crew chiefs working F-4 Phantoms on the flight line in Thailand during the intensive action packed latter part of the Vietnam War. This is my exciting life's story with focus on my tour at Udorn RTAFB. There are numerous books written by various fighter pilots of their missions over Vietnam with exciting aerial combat. The support level on the flight line was also grueling, but in a very different role. This is my everyday life at the typical crew chief's level keeping our fighters combat ready 24 hrs a day. Each new day brought a different challenge, dealing with sapper attacks, support for Operation Linebacker II, venomous snakes on the flight line, and living with the tropical heat and humidity. It was busy and it was noisy. Walk with me and experience what it was like in the crew chief's everyday life on the line. - Sam Lassiter

Download or read book Crew Chief written by Keith Myers and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-08 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “boys will be boys” novel is the best military comedy since Richard Hooker's MASH. Too many stories have been written about pilots. They fly the planes, drop the bombs and get the girls. All the glory goes to them. But in those stories, who do you think fixes the planes enabling the pilots to fly? The answer is, Crew Chiefs! Crew Chiefs work hard but they also have a bad reputation for playing and partying hard. They like to have fun, nothing gets by them, and everything and everybody is fair game. Follow Kyle Mansfield and his fellow C-5 Crew Chiefs as they take you behind the scenes to one of the Air Force's busiest flightlines. Join the wild and at times unbelievable adventures of the boys while they work, drink, fight, chase women and laugh their way through life both on and off the flightline. Remember the movie Stripes staring Bill Murray? In the movie there was a scene where all the soldiers were sitting around and introducing themselves to each other. When it came around to Bill Murray he said, “Chicks dig me, because I rarely wear underwear and when I do it's usually something unusual. But now I know why I have always lost women to guys like you. I mean, it's not just the uniform. It's the stories that you tell. So much fun and imagination.” This book tells many such stories.
