Mig Master : The Story of the F-8 Crusader, Second Edition Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

For professional aviators and aviation buffs alike, this biography brings to life the legendary aircraft that scored the highest kill ratio of any U.S. fighter aircraft in the Vietnam War. The book is filled with authentic recreations of Crusader-MiG fights and vivid descriptions of the people and events that are part of the F-8 story.

As the Navy's first supersonic aircraft, the Crusader holds an honored spot in carrier flying. Tillman recalls the years of frustration and experimentation spent in refining the aircraft and its gunnery system, and then takes the reader through key actions in Vietnam where seasoned pilots handled their"rambunctious steeds" with scarcely a glance in the cockpit.
