Sky Beyond

Edición de la obra Sky Beyond

In the 1930's several people around the world forsaw the requirement to set up aircraft staging routes around the world, both in preparation for WWII and in post-war civil transport. Sir P Gordon Taylor was one of the few to write about these times and produced what I can only call a "ripping good yarn". He describes flying a PBY/Catalina flying boat across most of the world's oceans to become the first aircraft to land at such places as Bora Bora & Easter island. Many hair raising experiences from the famous in-flight engine oil transfer to riding out hurricanes at anchor. An absolute must read for anyone who is interested in the development of international air travel.
