Contains 5 stories
Jinxed Corsair
5 pp · aviation; war

Ensign Coley Marsh arrives at a new carrier after his old ship is sunk, carrying a reputation as a jinx—his Corsair has a way of causing destruction wherever it goes, though the plane itself always comes through unscathed. When an engine malfunction forces him to ignore a wave-off signal during landing, suspicion mounts that his bad luck will get everyone killed, but Marsh gets a chance to prove what kind of pilot he really is when the carrier faces enemy fire in the Coral Sea.

The Crippled Eagle
5 pp · aviation

A skilled technician's farewell to the Air Force becomes unfinished business when an urgent cold-war mission calls his B-58 bomber back to the runway. As Sgt. Red Murphy mans his familiar post one last time, he and Captain Talbot's crew carry a critical payload northward—but a simple solution to his family's financial troubles might change everything. Will duty and camaraderie prove stronger than the civilian life waiting on the other side of the gate?

The Blackpool Front
5 pp · aviation; war

An RAF pilot commanding the lead Blenheim bomber faces a tense nighttime raid on the invasion barges at Ostend, relying on complete darkness to approach undetected and deliver his payload. With his gunner and bomb-aimer counting on split-second timing and nerve, he must navigate enemy searchlights and flak to complete the mission and bring his crew home. This 1959 wartime tale captures the cold calculation and raw tension of a bombing run where one mistake means disaster.

More Wings Than He Knows
5 pp · aviation; war

A Navy pilot's Hellcat takes flak during a strafing run and forces him down into the Pacific, where he battles the ocean, a damaged life jacket, and enemy snipers closing in on the island where he washes ashore. With rescue within sight but seemingly out of reach, he'll discover that survival depends on help coming from the most unexpected quarters.

The Old Birds of World War I
4 pp · aviation; history; war

The legendary pilots of World War I flew fragile, underpowered machines that would seem primitive by modern standards—yet men like Eddie Rickenbacker, Frank Luke, and Elliot Springs became aces through sheer skill and instinct, pulling off the same aerial maneuvers in their rickety biplanes that jet pilots would execute decades later. This look at "the old birds" showcases both the fearless aviators who dominated the skies and the aircraft they flew, from the sturdy French-built Spad XIII to Germany's formidable Fokker D-VII.
