Notes:
- Print-on-demand facsimile reprinting of the original G-8 WWI air war novel with some speculative elements from the May 1938 issue of the pulp magazine of the same name. The lead pulp novel is listed in the magazine as by G-8 as told to Robert J. Hogan.
- This is a 107 page reprint of the one-hundred and twelve page edition includes the non-speculative air-war short stories Code of the Air (p 77) as by Greaseball Joe, Courage to Die (p 78) by uncredited, and Spad Trap (p 97) by uncredited. All three are by an uncredited Hogan.
- All G-8 facsimile reprints in this series from Adventure House are reprinted in order of their original publication.
- "G-8 Speaks" is a letter section, and it usually opens with a short introductory essay by G-8 (Robert J. Hogan) and then goes on to print some G-8 fan letters.

- Reprints volume 14, number 4, whole number 57.
- All illustrations, including those of the non-genre stories, are by John Fleming Gould, although he is uncredited in this facsimile.
