Looked at this one, might have to pick it up.
Low Level Hell
Is another great read written by a scout pilot from a hunter/killer squadron (?) Basically his job was to fly around in a Loach / Cayuse low and slow and look for signs of enemy, usually by getting shot at. Then they'd have the Cobra attack helicopter come in to attack it.

After loads of reading on the bus to work every day, here follows my reading list for military aviation:
Modern
Vietnam
WWII
Overall/Other
Bonus non-military aviation
I highly second the recommendations of Snow Crash, Cryptonomicon, and Diamond Age. I would also recommend:
They path helicopters around artillery firing during Vietnam and you can only assume they still do it now for a reason...

They could easily make an OH-6 to match early huey, I'd love to reenact some moments from Low Level Hell.
But as much as I would love a littlebird, DCS would have to improve much more to actually have it play a role in the game, better inf. AI, animations etc
I just want the AH-64 :/
