Her er historien om en række af de vigtigste krigen igennem.Ole Steen Hansen tager os med på farefulde minelægningsoperationer i lav højde over danske farvande. På nedkastningsoperationer til modstandsbevægelsen og med bombefly på vej til mål i Tyskland.Læseren får overblik over krigen i luften, er med når nedskudte flyvere forsøger at flygte, og møder også de barske konsekvenser af de mange styrt.

Flyvningen er det 20. århundredes store eventyr, og Danmark har spillet en rolle i det. Ikke siden 30’erne er der kommet et samlet værk om dansk flyvning, hvilket ’Danmarks flyvehistorie’ retter op på i et gennemillustreret og lækkert trebindsværk. Danmarks flyvehistorie – De små fly er bind to.Ole Steen Hansen kender personligt de små flys Danmark og tegner et levende billede af piloterne og den passion, der driver dem. Mange af bogens flotte fotos er taget af forfatteren selv, når han har hængt ud ad åbne vinduer i små fly og fotograferet dem, der fløj tæt ved siden af.Historisk berettes om de små flys mangeartede anvendelse inden for fritidsflyvning, taxaflyvning, ambulanceflyvning, fotoflyvning og svæveflyvning mm. Og forfatteren tager os med på dramatisk forbryderjagt i åben dobbeltdækker, kighosteflyvninger med syge børn, dramatisk landbrugsflyvning en halv meter over kornet med 160km/t, kvindernes verdensmesterskab i svæveflyvning over den jyske hede, og omkring Roskilde-gruppen, der i hjemmebyggede fly med røg efter sig tegnede et hjerte på himlen over København for at hylde sundhedspersonalet under Coronakrisen. Bogen fortæller også om den vigtige danske flyproduktion omkring Anden Verdenskrig, om luftfotografering fra ballon over Tivoli i 1800-tallet og meget mere.Ole Steen Hansen (f. 1957) er forfatter, oversætter, fotograf, pilot og luftfartsjournalist. På baggrund af sit mangeårige virke blev han i 2019 tildelt Dansk Forfatterforenings faglitterære pris. Ole Steen Hansen har i mange år arbejdet med at fremme kendskabet til dansk flyvnings historie, når han i ord og billeder har skabt levende fortællinger med mennesket i centrum.

I tredje og sidste bind af pragtværket om Danmarks flyvehistorie fortæller Ole Steen Hansen den spændende historie om dansk militær flyvning. Den spænder fra den allerførste militære flyvning herhjemme – med en ballon, der desværre endte i Øresund – til et kig ind i fremtiden, da den nye F-35 lander på Flyvestation Skrydstrup.Forfatter-fotografen har talt med en lang række mennesker, der gennem årene har fløjet i Flyvevåbnet samt Hærens og Flådens flyvetjenester, herunder vores første kvindelige militære piloter og radiooperatører.Vi kommer med på højdramatiske redningsaktioner i helikopter, flyver – helt bogstaveligt – højere, end vingerne bærer, med to gange lydens hastighed i Flyvestation Aalborgs Starfightere og kommer tæt på, når ulykken rammer. En tredjedel af Flyvevåbnets kampfly havarerede i løbet af Den Kolde Krig.Bogen indledes med den voldsomme beretning om evakueringen fra Kabul i 2021.

The secret side of airplane travel, straight from the captain Captain Doug Morris has been writing for his airline's in-flight magazine for 24 years and answered a gamut of questions. This sequel to his bestselling book, From the Flight Deck: Plane Talk and Sky Science, explains everything you wanted to know about airline travel, such as: Do airliners have keys? What do aircrew get up to on layovers? Why the bumps? This Is Your Captain Speaking caters to the frequent flyer, the nervous flyer, aviation geeks, travel buffs, relatives to airline types, and that nosy neighbor who wonders what airline pilots do. Doug discusses how to become a pilot and the required training in the simulator, and shares passenger anecdotes about unsung heroes (flight attendants) and mile-high memberships. It's the A to Z of airline travel with a twist of humor. The flight deck door will always be closed, but Doug exposes the unique aviation world to the public. It's a must-read before or during your next flight.
