I recommend it highly, because it adds to the several great books out there about the 1st Air Cavalry Division Johnson's storytelling fleshes out a story replete with lot of vivid operational details with well-timed, and well-written flashbacks. There is a technique in writing that says "show, don't tell". Johnson creates clear imagery all through the book that takes you from the wind-swept scrub of Fort Wolters near Mineral Wells, Texas, where Vietnam era helicopter pilots learned to fly rotor-wing aircraft, to the monsoon-sodden highlands of Vietnam to the slopes of the dreaded A Shau Valley. Johnson writes clearly and descriptively about a number of dramatic events which occurred during his year-long tour, any of which would be a stand-alone once-in-a-lifetime episode. To use a familiar, often overused description to describe "To The Limit", it's a page turner! Seriously. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The memories are overwhelming in this book! *by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2014* Here's the scoop. If you're an aviation nut, you might like the book. If you are any kind of helo pilot, you'll like it. If Bell blood is running thru your veins, you will be amazed at the memories and recall of the author. You can smell the JP, feel the one-on-one, and hear the 'whop' as you decrease the collective (power). Pgs 9/10 of the 1st chapter kind of screw up the start sequence. The -10 states you monitor the battery first when you hit the starter to ensure you have the volts to continue the start. When you light the fire, you monitor the EGT closely to ensure you're not getting a 'hot start'. You do NOT go past the flight idle stop until the start sequence is completed in case you have to abort the start. Also, when you go across the flight idle stop, there are quite a few things in the cockpit left on the check list to accomplish at flight idle before you get up to 6,600 RPM. Radios & nav gear-ON; flight controls-CHECK, etc. The ONLY infinitesimal glitch in the entire book. Lastly, ONLY the Army flies the in-trail formation. In-trail can be the biggest goose chase in your life if flight lead is not totally smooth on the controls and has everything nailed down beforehand. Any goof by lead turning final, setting the approach angle, etc leads to a daisy chain of dominoes that gets really hairy really quick for the rest of the flight. You'd have to be stacked in the middle! of the flight to appreciate how fast the tail rotor of the bird in front on you can fill up your windscreen. Only trail/last in flight has a true out; everyone else is committed one way or the other. Great book. More memories and scares than I have relived in many, many years. Congrats on getting it right!

As a perfectionist, I thoroughly enjoyed the perspective presented by Tom A. Johnson, but in his description of his last terrifying episode in a crashed Huey, I was appalled to see that Johnson repeatedly referred to his reloading of "CLIPS" for his .30 M2 Carbine. The only "clips" I ever encountered in the army were for my M1 Garand. What Johnson was reloading were his magazines. If Johnson had not disappointed me with this gross error, I would have pronounced his book as "perfect". --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/6320253-to-the-limit-an-air-cav-huey-pilot-in-vietnam](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/6320253-to-the-limit-an-air-cav-huey-pilot-in-vietnam) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
