He's the biggest, baddest, most spider-fearing player on the ice...Zeus Berger is an over-muscled, egotistical, sportsing goofball with a bigger mouth than shoe size-which is saying something-and I cannot get him out of my head.He should be easy to forget. He's all talk and no follow-through. But after an incredibly awkward one-night-stand gone wrong, I can't shake him, and I don't know if I want to.I need to get my brain back on business, and fast. It's hard enough being one of the toughest pilots in the flight adventure industry without the distraction of his body, his humor, and the teddy bear heart I'm starting to suspect he hides under all that bluster.But when I realize he's besties with the billionaire I'm trying to woo into investing in my business, I realize it can't hurt to play nice.Can it?The Pilot and the Puck-Up is a standalone romantic comedy featuring a athlete whose ego won't fit inside a hockey arena, the most badass woman to ever fly a plane, rubber chockey (don't ask), and no cheating or cliffhangers

Hal Miller Scrugham - father, and Richard (Rick) Throop Scrugham -son, each volunteered their service to their country during World War II and the Vietnam War.Hal joined the Army Air Corps in October 1941, two months before the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. While transporting a plane load of Sikh soldiers over the Japanese-besieged Imphal Valley of Burma, his C-47 was attacked by a Japanese Zero. After a mid-air collision downing the aggressive Zero, Hal and his co-pilot, Al Jost, were able to maneuver their damaged C-47 over the next hour for a safe landing at a British Royal Air Force field in Sylhet, India. Hal would be the only C-47 transport pilot credited with a Japanese Zero kill during World War II.Like his father before him, Rick joined the Army in January 1969. As Chief Warrant Officer, he flew in the largest helicopter airborne assault since the June 6,1944, D-day invasion. A force of over 120 helicopter and 40 gunships transporting three infantry battalions of South Vietnamese forces, attacking enemy forces along the Ho Chi Minh trail in Laos. During missions "across the fence" into North Vietnam and Laos, Rick would hover 1500 feet above tree canopy and drop retrieval ropes down to special operations spy units being pursued by the enemy. After the war, he would serve in the Tennessee Army National Guard for 26 years, and later as a corporate pilot accumulating 9300 hours of flying.Surviving war veterans can share their experiences after fulfilling their duties to their country. But most go untold or undocumented. Their adventures fall through the cracks of recorded history. This book documents the experiences this father and his legacy son have chosen to share.

Military Pilot Shortage

Pilot demand is increasing in the commercial sector, and the demand to hire qualified military pilots is higher than the available pool of candidates. This demand has led to a shortage of pilots across the services, with the problem being particularly acute in the United States Air Force, with a deficit at this point of over 1,000 total pilots. We cannot buy our way out of this problem since the military cannot compete with the potential salaries and, in some cases, the lifestyle of the commercial airlines. The services must use all the levers in their control, from an increase in bonuses to changes in the assignment system to changes in promotion to incentives, to incentivize pilots to remain in the military. The shortage of military pilots has a direct impact on readiness. The reaction to the shortage has typically been along the same veins: to throw more money at the problem in the form of cash retention bonuses. But without addressing the root causes, this will do little to stem the departure of valuable experienced military pilots. Service members are not in it for the money. Military pilots serve for love of country and for love of flying. There are many reasons besides money that military pilots leave the service for the private sector, including family concerns and a desire for more stability, too few flying hours, and too many assigned tasks unrelated to flying. It costs millions of dollars and years of training to produce just a single aviator. We therefore need to think broadly and creatively about how best to retain the skilled aviators that the U.S. needs.

Gen. Caleb V. Haynes, born in 1895, was one of the giants of U.S. military aviation. A "big, hulking mountaineer," as one writer put it, he spent nearly four decades serving his country as a test pilot and flight instructor in France during World War I; an explorer of new air routes across the oceans; a World War II bomber pilot who handled bombers as easily as others did fighters; a fearless transport pilot who pioneered the U.S. airlift operation over the Himalayas known as The Hump; a hands-on field and operations commander before, during and after the war; a true American military hero who earned countless accolades, including three Distinguished Flying Crosses; and - perhaps above all - "a pilot's pilot."

SHORT Summary of "Dino Pilot Rescue" In a vibrant, prehistoric world of towering volcanoes, lush green forests, and sparkling streams, a brave pterodactyl named Pete soared through the skies. Unlike other dinosaurs, Pete loved flying more than anything and owned a special plane that took him on many adventures. Every morning, as the sun spread its golden light over the ancient lands, Pete would stretch his large wings and glide high above the world, his heart filled with joy and a strong desire to help others. Pete was known for his kindness and courage. He believed that every creature deserved to be friends during difficult times. One day, dark, fluffy clouds gathered overhead, forming large, ominous shapes that warned of an approaching storm. As the sky flashed with bright lightning and thunder boomed, Pete remembered the wise lessons his mentor had taught him-that every storm held a lesson and that nature could be both beautiful and fierce. Far away on a remote island, a loving family had built a cozy home near soft, sandy beaches and swaying palm trees. The family-consisting of a caring mother, a devoted father, and two curious children-spent their days picking fruits and enjoying the gentle rhythms of island life. They laughed, played, and cherished every peaceful moment, unaware that nature's calm would soon turn to chaos. When the sky darkened further and strong winds began to blow, the island transformed into a place of danger. Heavy rains and powerful gusts trapped the family, leaving them isolated and frightened. At that moment, Pete felt a tug in his heart.

"This is the captain speaking..." You've heard the announcements, but have you ever wondered what's really going on "up there?" You can't visit the pilots during flight, but now you can get the inside scoop. Join an experienced Airbus flight crew as they face a typical day's work. From the hectic pace of irregular operations, turbulence, and quick turn-arounds, to landing in marginal weather with minimal fuel, this detailed description of a line pilot's job places you in the heart of the action. Captain Grant Corriveau (Uplift - A Pilot's Journey) once again takes you beyond that locked door to see what real airline pilots are up to while you're invited to "sit back, relax, and enjoy the flight." After thirty years of airline flying the captain has gained a few insights and formed some strong opinions. Now, he's happy to share... "Fuel gives us time and options. But now fuel is costly, and companies dole it out by the teaspoonful. They dispatch us with minimal fuel reserves based on the reliability claims of weather forecasts. I wonder if meteorology departments ever overstate the validity of their predictions, to justify the multi-millions spent on technical equipment and super computers. Or is this just another example of my old pilot skepticism morphing into cynicism?" Corriveau shares intimate details with typical humor and candor... "An old aviation maxim says: "We don't fly until the weight of the paper equals the weight of the pilot." And, just like my waistline, the paperwork has increased over the years. ... once on board, the datalink will start spitting out paper like... well, like it grows on trees. First Officer Paula hoists about an elm-and-a-half off of the counter, and we make our way back over to the luggage rack." ... "I hear the sounds of galley doors and storage units slamming shut behind me. I glimpse someone in the jetway swinging the main cabin door closed. It must be time to go." Here's your boarding pass, now hurry Don't miss this golden opportunity to sit in the flight deck, and view the job of an airline pilot from the inside out.

Leonard Cheshire was one of the most highly decorated pilots of the Second World War. As the Royal Air Force’s youngest Group Captain in 1943, he took a drop in rank and went on to command No. 617 Squadron and pioneer low level marking and precision bombing. For this, together with four years of fighting against the bitterest opposition during which he maintained a record of outstanding personal achievement, he was awarded the Victoria Cross. In 1945 he was an official observer of the dropping of the second atomic bomb on Nagasaki. Post-war his humanitarian work on behalf of the disabled resulted in the establishment of the Leonard Cheshire Foundation (now known as Leonard Cheshire), the world’s leading disability care charity.First published in 1943, Bomber Pilot is Leonard Cheshire’s contemporary account of his experiences during his first three years with Bomber Command. His light style captures both the exuberance of youth, yet also brings out the growing realisation of the responsibilities and dangers facing the young aircrew of Bomber Command. He describes his experience of operating Whitleys with No. 102 Squadron, first as a novice co-pilot and later as captain with his own crew, providing a vivid description of the action for which he was awarded his first DSO. Following a brief interlude in North America he returned to join No. 35 Squadron as it introduced the Halifax into service before moving on to command No 76 Squadron.In this new edition, Leonard Cheshire’s original text is supplemented with an additional commentary by Dr Robert Owen, aviation historian and Official Historian of No. 617 Squadron Association. Providing additional details of the events described by Cheshire, this commentary places them in the broader context of the Bomber Offensive and includes a full record of Leonard Cheshire’s operations and wartime awards.
