Synopsis

TopGun instructor Luke Henry quits the Navy to start a private aerial combat school in Nevada. A lucrative contract with the U.S. government brings him twenty Russian MiG29 fighter planes with the condition that he train a group of Pakistani AirForce pilots handpicked by the Department of Defense. Luke is hesitant to train fighters from another country in the skills he learned at TopGun, but he cannot open the school without agreeing. The closer he gets to these students, however, the more he suspects that they may have an agenda of domestic terrorism that will soon spiral out of control.

High intensity and good characters. Join in on a new flight school that teaches, of all things, how to fly a MIG. That's what Luke is putting together.

Goodreads review by James on December 23, 2022

I’ve read most of Huston’s books, but has to take a break from reading this one. It seems as if connecting parts were left out in order to keep the book at a reasonable length. And American pilots wearing flight suits with Russian rank/insignias on them? Why? Just because they’re flying Russian jets......more

Good writing but an outrageous plot, not an iota of which sounds even remotely plausible.......more
