If you want to support "one of us" check out this author. He flies for American, he's in the AF Reserves and is also a POST certified member of law enforcement.

It's "easy reading", less complex than say Tom Clancy, but it is good reading none the less.

I like to know I'm supporting someone who has been in my shoes. Especially the era, which didn't end long ago, where entire reserve squadrons were sharing 1 working aircraft in order to retain currency. The rest of them were all broken, and had parts taken off them to keep other birds in the air.....

Guidance for those held back too often by temper & anxiety. Full of tips for managing life beyond the course. Or the flight line.

If you happen to have this on your iOS 14.4.2 or less (10th Edition), it will not work if you upgrade the iOS tp 14.5. No warning, just a message that app developer must update for the app to work. You get no credit, they want you to buy it again and blame Apple that they cannot update it at a discount or upgrade the old app.
