Narration During Books God Is My Co-Pilot

The novel God Is My Co-Pilot by Colonel Robert L. Scott was a very intense and interactive story. This work of non-fiction was exciting and never fostered a boring moment.

The story begins with twelve-year-old Robert Scott executing a carelessly planned prank on his church congregation. He is punished by his preacher and lashes out in vengeance. Young Scott carves a fifty-foot piece of canvas from a makeshift church tent and uses it to build a glider. Scott attempts to fly the glider and crashes it down a steep hill into rose bushes. From then on Scott moved onto buying his own plane and then his career "took off" and "landed" him in an extraordinary place. Scott goes on to become a mail-carrying pilot for the united states army after completing his pilot training for the military. Scotty, as he becomes known, was scheduled to be part of a secret military attack against the Japanese enemy of the Second World War. His mission was canceled due to changing intelligence and he was moved into India where he transported plane parts over the Himalayas. Scott obtains a position as a fighter pilot and begins flying attack missions for the military.

The stories that Scott tells of the missions he flew and the situations he got himself in and out of are truly amazing. His first person writing style makes it feel as if you are in the cockpit with him. Be subject to all his emotions and actions truly emerges yourself into the novel. The gripping details of Scott's recalled events are almost unbelievable. He never leaves you stuck in a boring or slow part of the story. I could tell that Colonel Scott lead a very interesting life and had truly mind-blowing experiences in his Air Force career.

I was deeply impressed by this novel and absolutely loved it. I felt a connection with the author and his stories because of how personal they were written. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a definite thriller, a book that you just cannot put down. I do caution that there is deep emotion and some death with the stories that Scott exposes you to, so be prepared. However, the stories still do grab a hold of your mind and never let go. Be prepared to take a turbulent flight through the piloting life of Colonel Robert L. Scott.

Critique Regarding Books God Is My Co-Pilot

This is a memoir of a WWII pilot who fought in the China-Burma theater during 1942 and part of 1943. He shot down 13 Japanese planes with his P-40 fighter. He flew with the Flying Tigers as well as the US Army Air Corps. It is a well written book and gives good descriptions of air combat and the life they led while flying. It is not written as a religious book, but simply his personal experiences.

I remember almost nothig about it except that it was about flying the "Hump" in WW2 SE Asia. One of my Scholastic Magazine books in Jr. High. Date read is a guess.

This book was interesting. It was written by someone who was there in China during WWII. It was certainly a product of it's time. The thoughts and opinions of Americans at the time are evident. It was really just a glimpse of one small area where the war played out - definitely not the big picture. But a part of the war that I hadn't even heard of before.

This book directly led me to choose a career. Enough said.

War time propaganda, but a fun read. Just don't think of it as history

Perhaps this book is nothing more than a propaganda piece from the 1940s, but as a twelve-year-old boy, this book grabbed my attention like none other. I found an original print of it one fine summer in Greensboro, Vermont at the local library during a book sale and purchased it for 50 cents. My life has never been the same.

Met the author after a speech in Warner Robins, Georgia in the late 1980's. Wonderful book, humble man.
