3 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
Ernest K. Gann’s classic memoir is an up-close and thrilling account of the treacherous early days of commercial aviation. In his inimitable style, Gann brings you right into the cockpit, recounting both the triumphs and terrors of pilots who flew when flying was anything but routine.

Pickpick

Well this was a good old fashioned adventure story. Gann was a commercial pilot during the 30 and 40‘s when not flying transportation for the US army during the war. As a result he portrays a simpler and more dangerous period of air travel, when planes would disappear or crash for seemingly no reason, a time when fate hunted pilots. Gqnn‘s seemingly lived a blessed existence surviving multiple near misses and retired before the luck ran out
