Life as a Mercenary Pilot

De: Layne Bee

Fast planes. Big money. No rules.
Before the era of drones and digital warfare, there were men who flew straight into the heart of darkness with nothing but their instincts and a battered aircraft.
This isn’t fiction dressed up to sound real—it’s the adrenaline-laced, firsthand account of a mercenary pilot flying for the CIA in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War.

Step into the cockpit of a short takeoff and landing (STOL) aircraft screaming over the jungle canopy, loaded with weapons, rice, or refugees—depending on the day. These ex-military pilots were recruited by shady contractors like Air America and CASI to run missions the U.S. government could deny. No uniforms. No support. Just danger, cash, and the constant threat of never making it back.

Inside you’ll find:

• Hair-raising jungle landings

• Hard truths about the war in Laos the world never saw

• A cast of fellow outlaws, rogues, and legends-in-the-making

• Dark humor and brutal honesty about the cost of war

• An unfiltered look at U.S. foreign policy at its most covert

Perfect for fans of Air America, Top Gun: Maverick, and The Terminal List—this is the wild ride you didn’t know you needed.

Buckle up. There’s no autopilot where we’re going.
