A. M. "Tex" Johnston was a test pilot for Bell Aircraft and Boeing.
“There seem to be two Tex Johnstons: the one who became legendary
in 1955 for performing two barrel rolls with the Boeing 707
prototype . . . and the man who brought to flight testing a far
more meticulous approach than had ever been used before. . . .
Johnston is of the barnstorming generation . . . [and] in his
memoir’s best moments you can smell the oil on the grass.”—Air &
Space
“Fascinating reading.”—Aerospace
