Location: United States (CA)
Comments: First Edition Naval Institute Press Hard Cover New dustjacket 2008 230 pages, 37 photographs, index, notes, resources. In Contrails over the Mojave, Marrett takes off where author Tom Wolfe's The Right Stuff ended in 1963. Marrett started the Air Force Test Pilot School at Edwards AFB only two weeks after the school's commander, Col. Chuck Yeager, ejected from a Lockheed NF-104 trying to set a world altitude record. He describes life as a space cadet experiencing 15 Gs in a human centrifuge, zero-G maneuvers in a KC-135 ""Vomit Comet,"" and a flight to 80,000 feet in a Lockheed F-104A Starfighter. After graduating from Yeager's ""Charm School,"" he was assigned to the Fighter Branch of Flight Test Operations for three years. There he flew the Air Force's latest fighter aircraft and chased other test aircraft like the X-15 rocket ship and the XB-70A Valkyrie as they set world speed and altitude records.
