Customer Reviews

Backstage Pass!

Brian Shul does an excellent job of putting you in the cockpit of the Thunderbirds, both literally with the many great photos, but also from many of the pilot's own words while taking you through training season all the way to the elegant air show! Brian also has a book about the Blue Angels and one about the bird he flew himself, the SR-71 called "Sled Driver". Great writer, photographer and fighter pilot. This is a great book about the best aerial demo team in North America (runner-up: The Blue Angels)!

Outstanding

Brian Shul's photography is near flawless and the interviews are very interesting and revealed a great deal that even a well tuned-in airshow fan might not know about the Thunderbirds (the second best demo team in the world; the Blues are still number one).
