Mack Maloney is the author of the best-selling “Wingman” series, (Open Road Publishing). With more than one million books sold, Wingman is considered one of the most popular military aviation series of the past two decades. His new book, “Wingman 18 -- Battle for America,” was published May 2.

Mack is also the author of “UFOs in Wartime – What They Didn’t Want You To Know" (Penguin Books.) Why are UFOs spotted more often during times of war? Mack tracks this phenomenon from Biblical times right up to the present, citing dozens of instances of UFOs being present during key battles in World War One and Two, the Korean War, Vietnam and the First Gulf War.

Mack is also host of the popular “Mack Maloney’s Military X-Files” radio show heard on a number of internet networks as well as Armed Forces Radio. Discussing everything from UFOs, ghost ships, missing aircraft and conspiracy theories, the show made national news two years ago when an alien calling in from 44 light years away correctly predicted the outcome of the Super Bowl.

Mack is also a member of the rock group SKY CLUB whose self-titled CD (Voiceprint Records, London) tells the story of a spaceman stranded on a deserted planet with only the songs on his iPod to keep him sane.
