Wings of Gold

The Story of Australian Pilots and Observers Who Trained with the UnitedStates Navy 1966-1968

By: Jack McCaffrie and Jed Hart Trevor Rieck,Trevor Rieck,Jack McCaffrie,Jed Hart

Flying from an aircraft carrier is one of the most difficult things to do in all of aviation. This is the story of a group of young Australians who joined the Royal Australian Navy to take up that challenge in the mid-1960s. Their story is unique because, unlike those who went before them and those who followed, they were sent to the USA to undertake their flying training with the United States Navy. So began an unusual chapter in the story of the Royal Australian Navy. 'The Pensacola experiment', as it was called, was an outstanding success. This book follows the young men's initial and sometimes almost accidental encounters with the Navy recruiting office to their arrival as fully fledged naval aviators at the Naval Air Station Nowra, NSW, ready to join their first squadrons. A mix of narrative and often hilarious personal anecdotes takes you along for the ride with the group as they land at the US Naval Air Station Pensacola, meet their host families, and learn to adapt to American culture in a huge training system that turned out thousands of naval aviators each year, many of them destined for the war in Vietnam at the time. Readers will share in the growing sense of excitement and satisfaction as these young aviators work towards their initial carrier qualifications and ultimately gain their coveted 'Wings of Gold'.

The Jack Harvey Novels

By: Jack Harvey,Ian Rankin

WITCH HUNT, BLEEDING HEARTS, BLOOD HUNT: Three thrillers by mega-seller Ian Rankin, writing as Jack Harvey ¿Rankin¿s ability to create a credible character, delivering convincing dialogue to complement sinister and hard-hitting plots against vividly detailed atmosphere, is simply awesome¿ Time Out ¿His fiction buzzes with energy ¿ Essentially he is a romantic storyteller in the tradition of Robert Louis Stevenson ¿ His prose is as vivid and terse as the next man¿s yet its flexibility and rhythm give it a potential for lyrical expression which is distinctively Rankin¿s own ¿ Rankin controls the material with extraordinary authority and even delicacy ¿ Rankin ranks alongside P.D. James and Michael Dibdin as Britain¿s finest detective novelist¿ Scotland on Sunday ¿Rankin¿s prose is understated, yet his canvas of Scotland¿s criminal underclass has a panoramic breadth. His ear for dialogue is as sharp as a switchblade. This is, quite simply, crime writing of the highest order¿ Daily Express
