Presenting Tuskegee Airman Memoirs! Thank you for visiting our site. Here you can purchase our books - A Pilot’s Journey and Training the Best - and have them signed by the pilots and authors, and have them dedicated and dated. In its book review of A Pilot's Journey, the Capitol Hill Voice stated the following: “We know about good books and bad books, heavy books and frivolous books, but we don’t hear too often about books that perform a real service to readers. A Pilot’s Journey: Memoirs of a Tuskegee Airman, Curtis Christopher Robinson (Robnor Publishing) by George Norfleet is such a book. It educates and illuminates and reminds us that not so long ago in this country – and Washington – was a different place, one that treated many of its citizens as less than second class. But while “A Pilot’s Journey” is never less than honest about the difficulties of being black in 20th Century America, it also celebrates the way Robinson, his forbears and his contemporaries rose well above the limitations placed on them by the government and their fellow, but white, citizens.”
Curtis Robinson and his Graduating Class - 43D Charles Flowers with Fellow Flight Instructors Training the Best was written by Dorothy Poole and captures the story of Charles Herbert Flowers Jr., a flight instructor who spent his time a Tuskegee, Alabama as a full time flight instructor who transformed cadets into pilots. During Mr. Flowers' tenure, 996 pilots were trained at Tuskegee. He trained roughly ten percent - or about 100 - of those pilots.
