Covert Skies is one man's experience, but it's good reading for anyone, even those who were there. I got to Laos in 1969, which was different from what Ron Sutphin encountered in the late fifties and early sixties. Even in 1967, when I was first stationed with Air America in Saigon, you attended ground school for the aircraft you were assigned to fly and then flight training before line training. You didn't operate one aircraft one day and another the next. I dare say the average pilot wouldn't remember how to start another plane, let alone fly it. And then fly it in a place with no navigation aids; smoke from the slash and burn farming made flying like you're in a glass of milk, the weather where clouds touched the ground and enemy shot at you at every turn? That's not normal flying by any means.

Very interesting about aviation in a hard time, and info many may not know about our history.

...I've heard some of his stories firsthand... But this book!! Only a short way in it got a nap, a belly laugh, and tears. The flow of a well written book takes you from the raw inside of a tender intense boy to the outside of his dreams and adventures. If you pick it up, you won't put it down.
