Paul Tremelling is a British author and former Royal Air Force Harrier pilot. Harrier: How To Be a Fighter Pilot is his account of what it takes to fly one of the most demanding and iconic military aircraft ever built — the Harrier jump jet, famous for its ability to take off and land vertically. The book takes readers inside the cockpit and the culture of fast jet flying.
Tremelling writes with the authority of someone who has lived the experience, combining technical detail with the human story of what it feels like to fly a military jet at extreme speeds and in extreme conditions. The book captures both the exhilaration and the danger of life as a fighter pilot.
Available as both a book and an audiobook, Harrier offers thrilling listening and reading for aviation enthusiasts, military history fans and anyone who has ever looked up at a jet and wondered what it would be like to be the person in the cockpit.
