Author: Winston, Robert A.,
Title: Dive Bomber: learning to fly the Navy's fighting planes.
Description: Annapolis, MD, Naval Institute Press, (1990). Facsimile ed. VG in VG DJ. First published in 1939, this lively memoir focuses on the author's flight school experiences in Pensacola during the. golden days of the late 1930s when training was a leisurely affair and young aviators were enveloped in an aura of glamor and distinction. Out of print for decades, it deftly illustrates the calm-before-the-storm era of growth and expansion in U.S. naval aviation.
