Default Review of "Boyd: The Fighter Pilot Who Changed the Art of War"

Figured this was the best place for this review. Sounds like Boyd lead a very interesting life in the military. Seems like a book the fighter pilots might enjoy, or anyone interested in energy management.

the history channel has had a bunch of shows on this guy lately, and actually lots of cool aviation stuff has been on lately. They've documented various fighter designs from Germany to the US, and also bombers and have really gotten in depth as to the trade offs each plane has in regards to speed, maneuv., range, aerodynamics and power. Very cool stuff, and this Boyd guy's concepts were something special and innovative...
