Read Reach for the Sky by Paul Brickhill
It's about Douglas Bader (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Bader) – the DOUBLE-AMPUTEE British WWII ace pilot!
Not exactly a pilot biography, but Kelly: More Than My Share of It All by Clarence L. Johnson and Maggie Smith is about Clarence "Kelly" Johnson – 1st head of the fabled Lockheed Skunk Works. And if you like that (or even if you don't), read Skunk Works by Ben Rich – the guy who apprenticed under Kelly Johnson, and took over Lockheed's elite R&D wing from Johnson.
