America's most advanced fighter plane is hijacked-and the greatest high-flying chase of all time begins... Dale Brown presents his newest, most electrifying adventure - a high-flying race for technology that will shatter the world. The Soviets have hijacked America's most advanced fighter plane, a marvel of technology called the DreamStar. Lt. Colonel Patrick McLanahan must get it back-at all costs. His plane, the Cheetah, is not quite as advanced as DreamStar. And so begins the greatest high-tech chase of all time... Keith James, the hottest pilot at Dreamland, a secret Air Force base in the Nevada desert, is the only man fully qualified to fly Dreamstar , a highly maneuverable fighter flown by computer software linked to the pilot's brain. But in 1996, James, a Soviet mole trained from childhood in his alter ego, steals Dreamstar . The Cheetah , an experimental F-15 fighter, must hunt it down and destroy it. The hero is ace B-52 navigator Pat McLanahan from Brown's first novel, The Flight of the Old Dog, assisted by the Old Dog's crew. Aviation buffs will delight in the breathtaking dogfights and air strikes.
