Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the biography of one of the Royal Navys legendary pilots. BF or Daddy as he was known, started his career at Dartmouth and then spent his early seagoing years in Hong Kong, Nagasaki and Hiroshima. His wartime experiences as a Fleet Air pilot aboard HMS Glorious included the historic air strike at Taranto and the search for the Graf Spee. In May 1940 he was loaned to Coastal Command and attacked German Panzer tanks in a biplane, defended Allied troops over Dunkirk and was one of only a few naval officers to fight in the Battle of Britain. After a period as a test pilot at Boscombe Down he became one of only four Wing Leaders in the Royal Navy. His successful leadership lead to many more successes, not least the crippling of Tirpitz as part of a diversionary plan in the lead up to D-Day.He was a superb pilot, loved by all the air and ground crew under his command. His reputation as a fearless and dynamic leader remains a legend today. The book contains detailed and graphic accounts of aerial sorties and strikes throughout the dark days over Nazi Europe. Tragically he was killed in action in July 1944, one week prior to promotion and a job ashore. The book includes many of his letters and extracts from his diary.

Book excerpt: “The action in this series opener is nonstop and violent . . . a good bet for military sf and fantasy fans.”—Booklist Hal Kailas is a runaway and a pauper, living hand to mouth in a kingdom where peace is by no means certain. But Hal has a dream. In his younger days, he had the breathtaking experience of bonding with a young dragon, and the memory of the beast’s great strength and power consumes his every thought. When war does come to the kingdom, the most daring and ruthless of men soar into battle on the backs of such fearsome creatures—monstrous weapons of war that rule the sky. Few men are strong enough to bend a dragon’s will to their own, but Hal has reason to think he may be one—and in time, he will prove that he is the greatest dragonmaster of them all. “Fans of military fantasy and dragon lore should enjoy this fantasy adventure.”—Library Journal

Download or read book The Chicago Air and Water Show: A History of Wings above the Waves written by Gerry Souter and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07-09 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest such spectacle in the world, the Chicago Air and Water Show draws over three million people to the lakeshore for a weekend of low-key beach leisure and high-powered entertainment. Gerry and Janet Souter climb into the cockpit (and occasionally lean precariously out of it) to log the extravaganza's fascinating history. Even before the event became a beloved annual tradition half a century ago, visitors to the lakeshore had been treated to sights like the International Aviation Meet, attended by the Wright brothers and their daring competitors; World War II training maneuvers executed by pilots like President George H.W. Bush; and an ascension to world seaport status graced by a visit from the royal yacht Britannia. This book is for anyone who has ever participated in the show's glorious tradition and for those who haven't but who still would like to get a glimpse of the gut-thrumming majesty of the planes and learn what convinced comedian Bill Murray to jump out of one of them.

Download or read book Action Analysis for Animators written by Chris Webster and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Action Analysis is one of the fundamental princples of animation that underpins all types of animation: 2d, 3d, computer animation, stop motion, etc. This is a fundamental skill that all animators need to create polished, believable animation. An example of Action Analysis would be Shrek's swagger in the film, Shrek. The animators clearly understood (through action analysis) the type of walk achieved by a large and heavy individual (the real) and then applied their observations to the animated character of an ogre (the fantastic). It is action analysis that enabled the animation team to visually translate a real life situation into an ogre's walk, achieving such fantastic results. Key animation skills are demonstrated with in-depth illustrations, photographs and live action footage filmed with high speed cameras. Detailed Case Studies, practical assignments and industry interviews ground action analysis methodology with real life examples. Action Analysis for Animators is a essential guide for students, amateurs and professionals.
