À propos de cet audio

According to a recent international study, the Lightning is the fifth most popular military aircraft of all time. It has many thousands of devotees who are a ready market for this timely and entertaining book which, with over 20 individual stories from former Lightning pilots, relates the highs and lows, and the dramas and the demands of those who operated this iconic aircraft from the sharp end.

Tales include the recollections of an aerobatic display pilot, an implausible yet true account of telepathic communication, and an extraordinary episode when a Lightning pilot on an exchange program with the French Air Force became embroiled in a mid-air collision. An unverified yet probably genuine world record is revealed in one of the chapters. The style, scope, and pace of this book will appeal to the general listener as well as to the enthusiast.

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to stories of the pilots and crews of the English Electric Lighting. My favourite story has to be the accidental sonic boom. The stories kept me captivated throughout the reading by the narrator. Overall this book was very well done and the narration was top shelf.

Lightning Boys is a great read!
