Stories From New Zealand Aviation's Adventurous Earlier Years
Very Good Condition - Hardcover with printed boards. Light rubbing to edges and corners. Signed and dated by the author on the front endpaper.
Former Air New Zealand pilot Guy Clapshaw draws on his experience to recreate the airline world of the 1960s, when international flying retained an atmosphere of adventure and romance. This embellished account follows the people whose work kept aircraft moving, from flight crews and schedulers to the characters managing operations behind the scenes. Unusual personalities, demanding journeys and moments of emergency reveal both the humour and the responsibility within that world. Clapshaw combines an insider's familiarity with aircraft and airline life with storytelling that gives the era a lively human presence. Tasman Echo Alpha offers aviation readers a journey into an earlier chapter of New Zealand's international air services.
