Publisher Description
Mac Tucker, or 'Serge' to use his callsign name, is one of an elite group of men trained to fly F-18 jets. Now, for the first time, Serge takes you behind the scenes of the fighter pilot world to reveal what it's really like.
Find out how it feels to be shot at by SAS snipers, to be lost in a $50 million jet over Northern Australia with nothing but car lights to guide you home, to rupture your sinuses while flying, to inadvertently bomb a yacht and to face death on an almost daily basis. Relive the adventures of a real-life Top Gun and find out what it takes to become part of this elite force.
From the Pentagon to the South China Sea, the deserts of Australia to the wars of the Middle East, this book is as action-packed as it is entertaining.
Sit back and strap yourself in for an exhilarating ride to the sound barrier and beyond with Mac Tucker, an Australian fighter pilot and real life Top Gun.
Customer Reviews
Fighter pilot
Some books you can't wait to finish, as you want to know how it ends. This book I didn't want to end. I could have read another 500 pages of his mis-adventures. Great stuff. Well written and a great laugh.
Really?
If narcissism is a prerequisite for a fighter pilot then it is no wonder "Serge" was one of the best. Some great stories without a doubt but it got more arduous the further toward the end you got. You eventually got tired of wading through the egotism. I'm sure he have himself many pats on the back after publishing.
Great read
Very well written and a great bio of a fascinating life. Thanks for sharing with us Mac.
