D.Middleton also wrote another book on very similar lines, can't remember the title - not to hand - but that's worth grabbing too.
I think the book
Double Zero is referring to is:
"Tests of Character: Epic Flights by Legendary Test Pilots"
ISBN 9781560916710
I also have:
"TESTED: Marshall Test Pilots and Their Aircraft in War and Peace 1919-1999" by Dennis Pasco.
Here you can find a
review.
I am an avid collector of flight-related technical documents and I was very happy to find many flight testing handbooks online. I suppose you would be interested in these:
USAF Test Pilot School textbooks (open each Google link and click on the "Handle / proxy Url" link)
US Navy Test Pilot School textbook (This link opens just c1.pdf=Chapter 1. You must download all files from c1.pdf to c10.pdf and from a1.pdf to a12.pdf)
Here you can find the NATO AGARD handbooks about flight test instrumentation (look for the AG-160 series) and techniques (look for the AG-300 series)
