                            Major Haun in his Spitfire in 1943

James R. Haun, Colonel USAF  1911 - 2001

 

Thousands in the flying community have already read Col. Haun's candid memoir under its original title, WHO SAYS THERE ARE NO OLD BOLD PILOTS?!

 

 

The new expanded edition is here, including hundreds more photographs collected during the Colonel's adventures from barnstormer to WWII fighter pilot, Berlin Airlift commander, Presidential Fleet CO, jet jockey, EAA homebuilder...and beloved flight instructor.  (Many of those photos can be viewed on this website.)

Charcoal sketch of Haun by Sgt. S. Dombrowski, 12th Squadron Photo Specialist

     Years after supplies of the previous 1994 self-published version were exhausted, requests for copies have continued coming in.  This website gives those unfamiliar with Col. Haun's unique window on an exciting era of history a quick overview of his life and wit, via written excerpts and pictures from the major periods detailed in Spitfire Wingman - now with added Foreword, Epilogue, and Appendix.  Those wanting to order the upgraded edition, please go to the Feedback page.
