Hello!
My all-time favourite (fiction) book with a flying theme is Gavin Lyall's "The Wrong Side of the Sky". "Shooting Script" from the same author is also very aviation oriented. I always wonder why neither of these has ever been turned into a movie?
Among non-fiction flying books, I really enjoyed reading André Turcat's "Concorde essais et batailles" (English title?) and "The Right Stuff" by Tom Wolfe.
Greetings, Max
