Post; Flash Point By James Huston


Well, this is about an F-14 pilot. He is given a reprimand and taken out of the USN service when this wingman is killed on a trip to Gaza while riding the bus whith his girlfriend who happens to be a double agent.
There is alot of pilot speak in the book, but as most pilots know, it is a great read. I definatly give it a 7out of 10, for one of the best reads of my life.

So is this book based on a real story?

No, or at least I dont think so. I think it is based on Huston's time served with the USS Kitty Hawk.
I know I have been working on trying to find out if he has any other books, but I am not sure about that one.
Just let me know if you find any other books by him, and I will defiatly order them on the net and read them and give criteques on them.
