Fighter Pilot's Heaven
Author: Donald S. Lopez, Sr.
Publisher: Smithsonian Institution
ISBN: 1560989165
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Fighter Pilot's Heaven presents the dramatic inside story of the American military's transition into the jet age, as told by a flyer whose life depended on its success. With colorful anecdotes about fellow pilots as well as precise technical information, Donald S. Lopez describes how it was to be “behind the stick” as a test pilot from 1945 to 1950, when the U.S. military was shifting from war to peacetime operations and from propeller to jet aircraft. An ace pilot who had served with Gen. Claire Chennault's Flying Tiger Fighter Group, Lopez was assigned at the close of World War II to the elite Proof Test Group of the Air Proving Ground Command. Located at Eglin Field (later Eglin Air Force Base) in Florida, the group determined the operational suitability of Air Force weapons systems and aircraft and tested the first operational jet, the P-80 Shooting Star. Jet fighters required new techniques, tactics, and weaponry. Lopez recounts historic test flights in the P-59, P-80, and P-84, among other planes, describing complex combat maneuvers, hair-raising landings in unusual positions, and disastrous crashes and near crashes. This memoir is peppered with lively accounts of many pilots and their colleagues, revealing how airmen coped with both exhilarating successes and sometimes tragic failures.

"Buckle up your seat belts! There may be some turbulence ahead." This isn't an announcement one would expect to hear on their final flight into the eternal heaven.

Here is a book for those who may share this unspoken belief. Or, you may be a person who wants to have a deeper insight into what happens when a child of God dies. What happens from the time a Christian dies until he arrives at his final resting place? Will he go directly to heaven? How long of an interval is there between death and heaven? Will it take some longer to get to heaven than others? We promise you a thrilling and enlightening ride on A Final Flight to Heaven. This book will inform you, will challenge you, and who knows? It may even change your life. About the Author Dr. James Wilkins is an author, teacher, pastor, evangelist, and director of New Testament Ministries.

Lunney, Former Apollo Flight Director* * * * *A work of fiction initially conceived more than twenty years ago, Damned to Heaven immerses the reader in a fast-paced world of real-time shuttle and space station operations, weaving an uncannily realistic storyline that taps the underlying yearning for humankind's continued exploration of the solar system.Like many, William Francis Drake grew up on the exhilarating promise of the early space program.

During one of the final ISS assembly missions, orbital debris strikes space shuttle Discovery, compromising its cabin and rendering a successful reentry dubious. Flight Director Drake and his team must swiftly advise the seven-person crew to either attempt reentry with their damaged thermal protection system or dock the dying Discovery to Alpha (already supporting a three-person crew) in the hope the ground can launch a rescue before the Station'sdegraded systems reach their limits.Drake's struggle to retain his passion for spaceflight has suddenly become a matter of life and death-and even through the crisis, his battle with the bureaucracy rages on.

The Book of Heaven
Author: Patricia Storace
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0375707557
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
From the author of the acclaimed Dinner with Persephone comes a radically original novel about four women who invite us to imagine the divine anew: what if “a woman’s point of view” were also God’s? Patricia Storace’s Eve begins by telling us her version of what happened in Eden, and by revealing that our familiar constellations conceal other heavens we have never allowed ourselves to see. Each of the four subsequent chapters is the story of one of these new zodiacs, featuring images central to women: a knife, a cauldron, a garden, a pair of embracing lovers. The four women whose stories they tell are Job’s daughter, the Queen of Sheba, a polytheistic cook, and a transformed Sarah, wife of Abraham. Storace brilliantly reimagines the worlds of these women, freeing them from the old tales in which they were trapped and putting them in the foreground of their stories and of the Old Testament itself.
