The Goodflyers: Lords of the Emerald Coast by John J Domina Johndominabooks.com https://www.amazon.com/Goodflyers-Lords-Emerald-Coast/dp/1665777095 At the Navy’s flight school in Pensacola, Florida, a fierce rivalry boils over between two US Navy flight squadrons and turns Personal. It’s about to get ugly. Strap in for the high-octane world of Lieutenants Frank Nicolosi and Joe Christmas, T-34C instructors who lead their squadron with precision and intensity. Nicolosi, cool but tightly wound, pushes to keep his squad ahead because second place means a slow death by inches whether screaming through the clouds or crushing it in ruthless sporting showdowns where the stakes are brutal. Christmas is fire to Nicolosi’s ice. Intense and unpredictable. Losing? Not in his DNA. Together, they forge a squadron that’s as lethal as it is legendary! Then everything changes. A rival squadron surges ahead with a cutthroat edge, led by a ruthless Marine with a combathardened mindset and no moral compass. Pressure mounts for Nicolosi and his fellow instructors to regain superiority, and things spiral into something darker. Unexpected love affairs exasperate matters. And beneath the surface, cracks begin to show. A colossal failure at the command level rocks the squadron and rips a family apart with shocking revelations, a flight instructor vanishes, and a student crosses a line he can never uncross and must cope with the consequences of his immoral actions. In this exciting historical novel, US Navy flight instructors and their student pilots compete fearlessly in the sky and on the ground, and reap the rewards and consequences of their actions in a world where loyalty, ambition and morality collide.
