Beschreibung

This is the unvarnished, often humorous, memoir of a pilot who served in the Royal New Zealand Air Force for 43 years. It is the story of an officer who occasionally fell foul of military justice, who survived four aircraft accidents, and who struggled at times with the way the organisation he was passionate about treated people. It is a story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and of lessons learned, sometimes slowly and often at significant cost.

If you have an interest in military aviation or leadership, this book is for you.

Über den Autor

Ron Thacker served as a commissioned officer in the Royal New Zealand Air Force for forty three years, retiring in 2022 as a Wing Commander. He flew helicopters operationally, and then instructed on both helicopters and fixed wing aircraft. He flew five seasons with the RNZAF Formation Aerobatic display team, four of them as leader, and went on to hold a number of tactical command positions. He continues to serve in the RNZAF as a civilian, managing the Helicopter Synthetic Training Centre at RNZAF Base Ohakea and training young pilots in the A109 [...] the time of publishing, he is the Chairman of the Missing Wingman Trust, a charitable organisation that provides financial and volunteer support to Air Force families that have been affected by death, injury or illness. Profits from this memoir will go to the Missing Wingman Trust.
