It provides day and night, high-altitude (70,000 feet, 21,300 meters), all-weather intelligence gathering In a delightfully personal way, the author takes the reader through his adventures and escapades as an Air Force combat pilot who joined the select few who have flown the famous U-2 spy plane. The author spent 17 years as a U-2 pilot and commander in that secretive intelligence collection program, followed by additional careers in commercial airline management and aviation education. Here he narrates aviation stories and anecdotes that lift the reader to the extreme heights of the U-2 and describes the hazards and travails awaiting those who fly at the edge of space.
