Textbooks or Study Areas for Aspiring Fighter Pilots

Hey All,

Long story short, my dream is to become a fighter pilot. I'm on the brink of joining the RAAF in a couple of months and in order to be prepared for pilots course have been doing plenty of study.

I have read several novels regarding fighter combat and fighter pilots. Have studied and passed all my commercial theory exams, studied Basic Gas Turbine, fighter combat tactics and manoeuvring aswell as aerodynamics for naval aviators. Furthermore I have read through the flight manuals of the aircraft I am hoping to fly.

If anyone could mention any noteworthy textbooks or areas of study not previously mentioned, that would be immensely appreciated.

Thanks, Alec
