Airman at the Helm by Eric Blackman ISBN: 0859371670 ISBN-13: 9780859371674 Format: Book Customer Reviews Review this book! Bibliographic Details Publisher: K. Mason Published date: 1979 Pages: 116 Similar books Beyond Courage by Norman Franks Aircraft Down! by Philip D. Caine Aircraft Down! recounts six extraordinary evasion adventures that took place in Holland, Belgium, France, Spain, Italy, Albania, and Greece during World War II. In 1944 alone, nearly 30,000 American airmen survived bailing out of or crash landing their aircraft in Europe. The great majority were captured immediately. A few lucky ones beat tremendous odds and managed to evade their Fascist pursuers. These thrilling stories are told by an authority on pilot survival, escape, and evasion. Noted aviation author and retired Air Force pilot Philip D. Caine based his work on official USAAF after-action reports and on extensive interviews with the airmen and some of the courageous Europeans who helped them at the risk of their own lives. In several cases, he retraced the actual evasion routes himself, and he has provided maps and photos that enable the reader to follow the downed airmen's actual footsteps. We Landed by Moonlight by Hugh Verity A Thousand Shall Fall by Murray Peden The Battle of Britain by Sebastian Cox This is the second volume of the classified history of air defence in Great Britain. Written while World War II was still being fought, the account has an analysis of the defensive tactics of Fighter Command, and attempts a day-by-day analysis of the action as it took place.
