An Officer, Not a Gentleman: The Inspirational Journey of a Pioneering Female Fighter Pilot

Mandy Hickson spoke to a group of Air Ambulance volunteers a couple of years ago and blew me away. Her personal energy is infectious and inspiring so I bought the book.
I think that if I hadn't met her and seen her in the flesh, I wouldn't have enjoyed this book as much. I needed to have her voice and her spirit in my head when I was reading. The book, sadly, is a bit 'dry'. There's only so much I can take of detailed descriptions of flying.
If you are looking for 'bursting through the glass ceiling' type stuff, she's done it, but she's remarkably understated about it.
