FROM F-4 PHANTOM TO A-10 WARTHOG: Memoirs of a Cold War Fighter Pilot

Provides an insight into life as an Air Force pilot, but as Ladd stresses, the focus is not on fireworks or stirring tales of derring-do. Instead this is an articulate and captivating account of what life is really like among a rare breed of arrogant, cocky, boisterous and fun-loving young men who readily transform into steely professionals at the controls of a fighter aircraft. 16 pages of photos, some in color.
