Colonel Winfield T. Hart was a Terran Confederation pilot and ace during the Terran-Kilrathi War of 2634-2669. After the war he retired and in 2675 he published a book about his experiences of the galactic conflict with the title A Wing and a Prayer: An Ace's View

I remember being asked what combat against the Kilrathi was like. In reality, it is a hard question to answer. You are dealing with a complex series of guesses, calculations, and hunches, all happening at the same time - all while you are being shot at and piloting something that is tossing you around like a roller coaster from Satan's playground. Nothing will ever replace the human pilot; there's no way to get a computer large enough to handle all the variables in space fast enough. 
/from A Wing and a Prayer: An Ace's View, by Colonel Winfield T. Hart (Retired), Enterprise press, 2675.
