Antoine de Saint-Exupéry pretty much wins at life. 'cept for the probable suicide thing.
It's a good book -- flows well. Critics of him say it's like you're flying, as if he's got you on one of his planes. I'unno. I liked. It gives a meaning to life, in a sense -- even if you know what you're doing is pointless, it's better to do something than nothing.

I really enjoyed Wind, Sand and Stars and was hoping that this was also a series of stories of flight and a little philosophy. It was a little more philosophy-y and wartime angst-y than I expected, but the story was still compelling.

Autobiographical story by the author of the Little Prince involving a near-suicidal reconnaissance flight over parts of occupied French territory in a Bloch MB-170.

Another work by the guy who wrote The Little Prince. Non-fiction novel related to his time flying during WWII.
