I did, but I missed "sniping" it by about 2 seconds. No biggie, it's available elsewhere.

I remember buying that book from Barnes & Nobles bookstore and I was very lucky to buy that book while it was the last book in miltiary section. And yes, CAG is correct it is very, very useful book. And that is how I got my favorite quote from that book:

Great pilots are made not born... A man may possess good eyesight, sensitive hands, and perfect coordination, but the end product is only fashioned by steady coaching, much practice, and experience.

Air Vice-Marshall J.E. "Johnnie" Johnson, RAF

But the real point of this book is to teach you ACM/BFM, as stated by CAG, so I seriously recommend this book, period!


Eagle out...
