    (English) Terrorism is a word that we read regularly in the newspaper these days, but air terrorism was there since aviation started. Since 1968, when an El Al flight was taken over by terrorists, hijacking was a regular returning occurrence and the most spectacular ones are described in detail in this book.

    (English) Yes, finally an English edition! It had to happen sometime! After previous publications by publisher Leeuwis Productions with Air Force pilot stories in Dutch, now finally a book in English. It contains almost 150 short stories by 62 Dutch Air Force pilots. And people, just to be clear, I really don’t have any shares in this publisher, but I have been a fan of this book format for years; just to the point, all kinds of stories about experiences with older and newer aircraft, sometimes serious or with drama or accidents, and so on and so on!
