There has never been a novel of man and flight
like this one. Eagles flies into and beyond
today s headlines to tell a brazenly exciting
story about the Air Force s new supersonic
F-15 Eagle, a space-age fighter superior to all
others, sleek, brutal, sophisticated, perilous.
And Eagles is also a human drama of the
men and women who fly it, maintain it, love it,
hate it, and sometimes die in it:
Major Eric "Topper" James, the fighter
pilots fighter pilot, top of his class at the Air
Force Academy, the icy paragon picked by the
computer to fly the supersecret Nightwing
Eagle to the limits of the earth s atmosphere
but a man who carries a dread, unknown
secret within him that could destroy him at
any moment.
Candy James, his wife, beautiful and de-
spairing, enmeshed in an illicit affair that can
bring only more heartache to her marriage.
Captain Simon "Moonbird" McAllister,
Topper s wingman, the "space freak" from
MIT whose contempt for the military is
matched only by his talent for trouble and his
consuming desire to qualify for experimental
test pilot school and assignment to the top-
secret "Hot Victor" spaceship program and
to that eud, his plans include marriage to
NancyGlass, the jaunty daughter of the pow-
erful Chairman of the Senate Armed Services
Committee.
