Book excerpt: Pilot and adventurer, Jason Walker follows his bliss--into the sensuous arms of sultry Charlotte Lansing. Unfortunately, Charlotte's husband, Alan, is a Wall Street raider, a drug-lord money-launderer and a particularly perverse pornographer. Marked for murder, Jason and Charlotte are in the race of their lives. After them are Alan and his psychopathic team of drug-lord hitmen. His hot pursuit will hurtle them through the tropical bars, torrid beaches and palatial villas of the Caribbean, as they flee by land, sea and air. But no one can run forever . . . A novel of brutal violence, blood-vengeance and stunning sensuality, Strangers' Gate pays homage to such noir classics as James M. Cain's Double Indemnity, Robert Stone's Dog Soldiers and Elmore Leonard's Glitz. At once lyrically poetic, electrifyingly erotic and relentlessly riveting, Strangers' Gate nonetheless pulsates with a voice all its own.

The first military Conviar-Liner was accepted on 8 March 1950. Military production eventually eclipsed civil production with the last Convair-Liner built being a military Canadair CL-66B, which was delivered on 3 March 1961. This aircraft was the last of 568 military Convair-Liners built.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twentieth century, civil and military aviation has played a prominent role in the history and development of Arizona. Commercial operators have exploited the advantages offered by aircraft to overcome its unique challenges of geography and climate. By virtue of Arizona’s dry climate and excellent storage facilities, as well as its clear air and wide open spaces in the Southwest (some might say “Old West”) area of the continental USA, a wide variety of military aircraft have been based or stored there through the years. The list of military aircraft types that made up the tapestry of Arizona aviation is as extensive as the list of legendary figures who have contributed to its amazing history. While most of the military aircraft types no longer grace the airspace over Arizona, many can be viewed in their former splendor as they stand as gate guards; museum exhibits, or as they stand mothballed in the “Boneyard.” This booklet provides a comprehensive guide to where these aircraft can be found. Finally, the descriptions of the recovery, restoration and preservation efforts stand as a tribute to the many volunteers who have devoted time, energy and financial support to ensure this rich heritage is preserved.
