MAXIMUM AFTRERBURNER
“Danger Close: Don’t Fucking Miss.”
A sign hung above the door of the deployed F-15E ops building at Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan.
Since childhood, Paul "Roscoe" White dreamed of becoming a fighter pilot, surfing clouds and shooting down MiGs against a deep blue sky.
With gripping stories, near-misses, cockpit banter, and moments of reflection at 30,000 feet, MAXIMUM AFTERBURNER offers a rare glimpse into the unforgiving demands of fighter aviation and the cost of excellence.
“An unfiltered behind-the-scenes look at what life is like in the elite world of combat aviation. Maximum Afterburner reads like a modern thriller—complete with taut, razor-sharp action and high-G authenticity. Strap in and hold on tight!”
- Jack Stewart, retired Navy fighter pilot and USA Today bestselling author of Unknown Rider
NO NEW LESSONS
In 2009, while temporarily assigned to Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, Captain Paul “Roscoe” White had a 48-hour window of free time before resuming an intense combat training exercise. Never one to shy away from adventure or a challenge, Roscoe and two fighter pilot buddies made the ill-prepared and life-changing decision to hike the infamous Stampede Trail in search of the “Magic Bus,” the same bus where Christopher McCandless died in 1992 and whose life inspired a famous book and a major motion picture.
