Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

A love of flying is the bonding agent for these three otherwise disparate members of the RAF Hampton Helicopter Squadron. Randal Price is the unconventional flight commander who competently leads his crew by day and tries to please his beautiful, socialite wife by night. Maggie Spencer's goal is to make it as a female pilot in a man's world, but her family problems seem poised to hamper her success. Dave Ashmore's much-beloved girlfriend is now engaged to his cousin, and his hopes of flying have gone out the window. Deciding he wants to be in the air even if he can't pilot a helicopter, he goes against his aristocratic family's wishes and becomes a loadmaster. A year in the life of this magnetic crew is the basis for Darrell's novel, a fascinating account of a little-appreciated branch of the armed forces. Maria Hatton
