TOPGUN DAYS - new book about my experiences as an F-14 RIO and Topgun instructor

[Bio]

Yeah Borders and Barnes & Noble were very cautious with me being a first-time author.... They only stocked it in a few stores.

Ordered my copy yesterday, hope it will be here soon

Sounds like a neat book.

I've often thought about publishing a book on my flying experiences. The best title I've come up with so far is "Barely hanging on, true stories of an unlikely fighter pilot"

Mine should be something in the veins of "VanWilder- The Aviator Years"

A COD pilot's bio should read something like a girl's gone wild video. Not much to the flying but a lot to the other "stuff" :icon_smil

I'd spend $19.99 on that video!

Hey, just start typing away at your keyboard! You'll be glad you did. Of course, finding an agent and publisher is, as they say, a whole 'nother story!

On the flip side of the P-3 brief...Here is one of our typical briefs: "Your leg, don't F*** it up, any questions??" "Nope" "Before start checklist"

BIO just got the book and started reading, awesome so far!!

 

[Bio]

I just added another page of photos to my site. Here's a link to the page: http://www.topgunbio.com/gallery-3/. These are photos that aren't in my book, and include F-4, F-5, A-4, F-14, F-21, and SR-71! I recnetly (4 Sep 2010) added a story about an encounter with the SR-71.

"Top Gun" sequel coming???

I went to the ReelzChannel website to watch my recent interview: http://www.reelzchannel.com/
(It's in the "News & Interviews" section and click on "Top Gun - Interview." The interview lasts about two and a half minutes, and does a nice job mentioning my book, TOPGUN DAYS.)

The surprise to me is that, in the intro to my interview the hosts of the show Hollywood Dailies say, "Producer Jerry Bruckheimer says a 'Top Gun' sequel is in the works."

 

[SWACQ]

So Hornets instead of Tomcats, and bar scenes from "Pigs in Space" at Fallon instead of the Miramar O'Club, huh?

 

[FlyMikeFly]

No thanks, I saw the movie years ago, pretty lame.

It was very nice to meet you this past weekend. I was [one of?] the one who read your book on the Kindle on the flight over to Hook, and I enjoyed it so much that I might actually have to relinquish the device for a few days so my husband can read it. :icon_wink

Kudos to your publisher and whoever did the ebook conversion for Topgun Days. The formatting was spot on and I noticed no problems that interfered with my enjoyment of the book, which is in stark contrast to the poorly formatted, error-ridden Kindle book I read on the flight home. Excellent job on making the reading experience pleasant for all versions of your book, not just the physical copies.
