Seasoned pilot and aviation writer Olsen offers portraits of four kinds of peacetime flying that aren’t too well known to the public but put aircraft and pilots at the kind of risk commonly associated with combat. It’s hard to imagine a more gripping book for aviation buffs than Olsen’s depiction of some of the hairier aspects of service networks usually taken for granted and seldom properly noticed by the media. --Roland Green
