This book traces an extraordinary career through nearly four decades of military aviation. Dick Lord, well known as an aviation raconteur, tells a tale of military flying at its very best. He covers, in amusing detail, the life of a carrier pilot in both the Royal Naval Fleet Air Arm and the United States Navy. His unusual career then led to combat in Southern Africa as a Mirage F1 squadron commander. He later rose to the rank of brigadier-general in the South African Air Force.

• Foreword by Admiral Sir Michael Layard KCB, CBE


• For anyone interested in military aviation


• Aviators, soldiers, military students and those with more than a passing interest in the cauldron of southern Africa during the ’70s and ’80s


• Extensive southern African and worldwide market


• A detailed work, highly readable and entertaining
