Flying Lucky 3 is a compilation of eighty-seven true stories of naval aviators in peril who got lucky, beat the odds, and lived to tell the tale. They are gleaned from the monthly U.S. Navy publication Naval Aviation News from 1955 through 1959. This is the third volume in a series, with follow-ons covering the 1960s, 1970s, etc. A glossary of aviation terms is included at the end.
