Fightin' Air Force #28

A Navy photo-reconnaissance seaplane on a routine Arctic patrol near Point Barrow is forced at gunpoint by enemy fighters to alter course toward a Soviet airfield on Wrangel Island. With radio contact back to base cut off by magnetic storms, the crew must rely on quick thinking and the plane's superior speed to escape their captors and make it back to Alaska with vital intelligence footage.

When mysterious unmarked jets attack a small Central American nation, Major Tom Lennon, a Korean War veteran advising the country's president, takes matters into his own hands—quietly recruiting four skilled pilots and fighter planes from back home to mount an unauthorized defense. Racing against time, the four Starfires arrive just as enemy forces prepare their assault, and what unfolds is a high-stakes aerial battle where surprise and skill must overcome the odds. It's a tale of soldiers willing to bend the rules to stop an invasion, with the fate of an entire nation hanging in the balance.

PFC Roger Miske dreams of joining the Air Force Academy, but when he flunks the entrance exams, he's forced to accept his role as an air policeman at a S.A.C. base—until months later, his vigilance on duty uncovers a saboteur operating near the runways. His quick thinking and courage in confronting the threat catches the attention of the base commander, whose recommendation changes everything Miske thought he'd lost.

Captain Ken Beatty's F-102A jet goes silent over a newly communist nation in the Balkans, forcing him to parachute into a village where a clever mayor seizes the moment to whip up anti-American fervor. Captured and subjected to intense interrogation and brainwashing by Major Sergei Kimski, Beatty faces a public trial broadcast worldwide—but an old friend watching from the press corps remembers the stubborn kid he once knew. Will the broken pilot confess to crimes he never committed, or find some way to resist the machinery built to destroy him?
