Summary: Former pilot and active member of two aviation clubs.
Comment: I just finished this book and hated to put it down. I will buy a copy for a friend who flew in Alaska from 1951 to 1995 and who now flies in the Pacific Northwest. Many of the planes are somewhat familiar to me. I did not fly except as a passenger on a few flights in Alaska when I was there in the Air Force for 20 months in 1951 and '52. The Authors' descriptions of accidents and near accidents point up the difficulty of the combination of limitations of aircraft, landing options (or lack of), hazardous terrain and uncompromising weather. The surviving bush pilots used the most amazing skills to make a success of flying in such a formidable and hostile environment. Excellent book!
