5.0 out of 5 stars
A Future Classic Hunter Book, January 12, 2007
This review is from: BEST OF THE HUNTER BREED: An Operational History of the Hawker Hunter FR10 (Hardcover)
This has to be one of the best books I have read on the Hunter and is specific to a unique mark of the aircraft. The book not only gives an insight into the life and times of a Fighter-Reconnaissance pilot but also into the lives of the most essential element, the ground-crew who kept them in the air. ('If aircraft were difficult to fly, the Engineers would be flying them'). It is a fascinating history of this absolutely classic aircraft and one that will probably not gather too much dust on the bookshelf; being referred to and re-read many times over. I have read it three times already and found something new each time. This is a highly recommended book from an eloquent and uniquely knowledgable author.
