About this listen

“Viper Pilot is fantastic….A great read!”
—Dale Brown, former USAF Captain and New York Times bestselling author of A Time for Patriots

Action-packed and breathtakingly authentic, Viper Pilot is the electrifying memoir of one of the most decorated F-16 pilots in American history: U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Dan Hampton, who served for twenty years, flying missions in the Iraq War, the Kosovo conflict, and the first Gulf War. Both a rare look into the elite world of fighter pilots and a thrilling first-person account of contemporary air combat, Viper Pilot soars—a true story of courage, skill, and commitment that will thrill U.S. Special Forces buffs, aviation and military history aficionados, and fans of the novels of Tom Clancy and Dale Brown.

For a fighter jet enthusiast, this is just priceless! Clear and easy to understand explanations of tactical stuff makes it easy to understand. Narrator let's you almost feel some of the action. And this fighter pilot is really a true real life hero! What a life!

I wasn't expecting much from this one. It took me a few minutes to get used to the narrator's American accent, but I really got to love this book. It's interesting, factual and has some good humour. I know I will return to this one in the future.

Excellent!
