A Short DCS video based on Chris Hadfield's new best selling book - The Defector.
Audio book content and story used with permission of the author.
Find the book here. Well worth a read. The Audio book is excellent as well.

BTW - for the DCS aficianados in the audience. Yes, I know there is a Jolly Rogers livery - too bad I did not find it until I spent all the time filming this
Also, YES, I know, those are Mig 19's - but it was the best available in DCS at the moment.

Thanks guys. There's a few more flying scenes including ones over Israel and in NTTR - so you never know...

Awesome concept and execution. It'd be dope if you narrated one of these novels, you have a great voice.

Thanks, but I can't claim to compete with Ray Porter (the narrator in thia case). He really is exceptional.

It's hard to put down once you pick it up. :-)

@@Sidekick65 It reminds me a lot of Tom Clancy's stuff. I read through the whole of Red Storm Rising in a day. Absolutely addicting. You can see Chris is still learning how to write and isn't at Clancy's level, but it's still great stuff.

You can tell he's a pilot and an astronaut though. He gets the details of the scenes in the cockpit (and the scene with the flight surgeon. Hah!) right in the way that someone who has not been there ever could.

Nice video Iain. Bought both the DCS F-4E pre-order and the audiobook. Good combo. :)

Between you doing this and Ifixedit working through red storm rising, this way of visually depicting aerial combat from books looks set to keep me very interested. Bonus points for phlying phantoms!
