| Every once in awhile, a new book comes along that literally takes your breath away with page after page of never-before-seen photographs punctuated by pithy, no-hold-barred text taken straight from conversations overheard at Happy Hour at the OClub. Grumman F-14 Tomcat is just such a book.WINGSYes, its a coffee-table book, but much, much more. If you flew it, lived, maintained it, watched it or loved it, this book will flood you with memories. The individual stories are spellbinding ... This is a nostalgic trip down memory lane that presents the best of the best Tomcat photo archive and includes all the call signs and all the sea stories ... Buckle, select zone 5, Im saluting the cat officer ... One more time baby! Two thumbs up, way up!The HookFor thirty-five years of active naval service, the Grumman F-14 Tomcat has served as the foremost air superiority fight of the cold war with continuing service as a fighter-bomber in the Gulf Wars. It is this service and the two hundred thousand sailors, both pilots and ground crew, who served in F-14 squadrons with the Tomcat over the years. This book is a grand remembrance of this great aircraft by those flew it. Hundred of pilots have included their favorite stories of the missions and plane that brought them home. Two hundred exceptional color photographs show the F-14 on the deck, in the air and over the sea. |
