+ghostrider883 Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Got my copy of this book recently. Its titled "Downward, Four Green" and its by Vice Admiral Vinod Pasricha (IN, Retd). The author was the former CO of the No.300 Sqdn "White tigers" , which during his time, was flying Sea Hawks. More info on the book here This the first attempt by an Indian author and a former Naval aviator to write an entire book dedicated to an aircraft. Its quite a big book and contains various section as mentioned in the link. It is like going back in time and actually witnessing Sea Hawk operations, right from its induction in the Navy, the troubles faced ,crashes, acquistion of German Sea Hawks etc. The author has gone painfully into detail in each & every section. I ended up being the first fellow to order this book and got it neatly autographed by the author himself . Edited October 14, 2011 by ghostrider883 Quote
