Item Description: I am selling the softbound book JOHN 'CAT'S-EYES' CUNNINGHAM -- THE AVIATION LEGEND by John Golley (2002). The book measures approximately 6" x 9-1/2" and is 225 pages long. The book is in like-new condition This volume is an Airlife Classic, published by Airlife Publishing Ltd. in the UK. Black-and-white photos illustrate the text. <P>In an action-packed life, John Cunningham has attained a legendary status which few have equalled. His wartime fame as an outstanding night-fighter ace was followed by a long career in test flying during the exciting post-war period when the jet engine was developed to power both military and civil aircraft. As chief test pilot for the de Havilland Aircraft Company, he was at the leading edge of the quest for supersonic flight and in the development of the Comet -- the world's first jet airliner. <P>This biography is the first book to record Cunningham's life and flying career and has been written with his full co-operation and help. It reveals his total dedication, absolute professionalism and coolness in the face of momentous and challenging events. <P>As 'Cat's-Eyes Cunningham' he became a household name during the World War II bombing blitz of Britain, symbolising the growing effectiveness of the RAF's embryonic defending night-fighter force. Few knew of his major role in perfecting the operational use of radar interception. He was the first squadron pilot in the world to shoot down an enemy aircraft using radar. <P>If shipping within the USA, buyer will pay $3.75 for media mail s/h. Payment can be made by money order or through PayPal. <P>I sell used books. The items come from many different sources and may have been exposed to pet, smoke or other odors in a previous home.
