Books
The Last of a Breed by Errol Severe ($49.99) – This is the first book ever written that covers the entire Flying/Aviation Cadet Pilot Training Program from its beginning in 1917 until its ending in 1961. This is the story of the brave young men who defended our nation in the skies during every war from WWI through Viet Nam. They were the top 2.5 percent of our nation’s young men. Their dream was to fly! They wanted to fly more than they wanted to eat. Out of approximately every 1,000 boys who applied for this training, only 75 men would graduate. Over 60 percent were washed out at primary flight training alone. So important was this program, that those who did wash out have not gotten over it to this very day, even if it happened over fifty years ago. But those who did have the skill, determination, and discipline, are as fine an example of what a man should be as can be found. They are the last of a breed, and when they are all gone from this earth, they will be sorely missed.
I Wanna Fly by Beth Severe ($14.95) – A most enjoyable book for the young at heart. This is required reading for all children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren! A most refreshing look at the child in all of us, truly an inspiration for everyone, and especially for future flyers. In this first of the series, author Beth Severe and illustrator Brad Whitewolf, allow us to see life through the eyes of an eight-year-old boy, Bryan Trueflight, who wants to fly “more ‘n anythin’”. The relationship between Bryan and his grandfather will melt the heart of every grandparent. The family values which are portrayed in simple childlike ways are models for successful living. The illustrations are truly works of art! All are original, and were created especially for this book.
