Second time reading this. Great story extremely well told, though an editor would have helped. I’ll read it again too.

Well written and humorous Yarn

I opened this book with few expectations. I normally read military and historical aviation books, but this book was a joy to read. I found myself stopping so I could read more later! His stories and writing style are humorous and well told. He has a knack for storytelling. I also enjoyed reading about a little known niche in the aviation world. I hope Mr Bourne has another book in him, as this was an enjoyable read.

A great read.

A very entertaining story told by a pilot who lived the life of a Crop Duster along the Texas border. Interesting characters and accounts of that chapter in his life.

A great book (although not the most well written) authored by an ex fighter pilot turned crop duster in south Texas. The book is about his life and stories from being a crop duster in the 1970s. A great glimpse into a life style and flying style that few experienced and is all but, gone.
