Book Description The most in-depth Stealth fighter book ever follows the development, operation, technology, testing, and history of the F-117 Nighthawk. A special section details F-117 combat operations in Panama and the Gulf War, and appendices detail individual aircraft by serial number, pilot bandit numbers, check-out dates, unit histories, significant dates and events, cockpit schematics, and all squadron commanders. Author Paul Crickmore gathered the information for the book from the Lockheed F-117 program manager, the F-117 Squadron Commander, and from talking with many, many pilots. These contacts coupled with recently declassified information on the Stealth program make this the most insightful book ever published on the subject. About the Author(s) Paul Crickmore - During his time as an air traffic controller at the London Air Traffic Control Centre, Paul Crickmore gained a unique introduction into SR-71 operations from RAF Mildenhall, Suffolk. Teaming up with Osprey produced the first detailed book ever to be published on the subject. When additional information became available to him in 1990 following the initial shut down of SR-71 operations, Crickmore produced an even more detailed book, Lockheed SR-71 The Secret Missions Exposed - the standard reference work on the subject. The work was acclaimed by both the aviation press, Ben Rich (late president of the Skunk Works) and the crews that flew the SR-71. Crickmore wrote this first detailed book about the '117 written in partnership with his wife Alison. |
