Glad you enjoyed it! Low level hell is good. Nuts in a different way. The guy is rather more gung-ho than Bob Mason, but the stuff the scout pilots did was ridiculous.
Another really good one is Snake Pilot by Randy Zahn (I think?). Definitely worth reading.
Edit: just thought of another one - Fate is the hunter by Ernest K. Gann. Brilliantly written, absolutely worth reading.

I finished Low Level Hell last week and it was excellent. That guy has some mad stories and to think he was only 19 years old while flying helicopters in Vietnam. I have passed the book on to my Dad, I think he will enjoy it.
Snake Pilot is next on my list, just need to find a copy on amazon/ebay.
Cheers for the recommendations!
farewell
I bought Chickenhawk the other day and read it in less than 2 days, I really enjoyed it.
Having a look on amazon now for Low Level Hell, looks like it has good reviews.
