Private Notes
AKA: "White Out: SAS Falklands Rescue"
In the Falklands War, a top secret SAS mission to South Georgia involves flying up the sheer face of a glacier and dropping men on an icy plateau, riddled with crevasses.
AKA: "Vietnam Firefight"
In the Vietnam War, flying into jungle produces a different kind of hazard. In a daring rescue mission a desperate pilot cuts his own landing zone in forty foot tall bamboo.
AKA: "Taliban Gambit: Trapped By The Taliban"
In Afghanistan, the combination of high altitude and dusty conditions make combat flying particularly challenging.
In the Iraq War, flying in the desert poses unique difficulties - there’s nowhere to hide, and a dust storm accompanies every landing and take-off.
