This collection describes wilderness pilots, maintenance engineers, passengers and cargo hauled above Canada’s hinterlands in turbine air ambulances to radial-engine Noorduyn Norsemen. The solitary Junkers Ju 52 appears, and the author points out that this one-of-a-kind had a larger wing than Douglas DC-3s or Vickers Viscounts. Readers entering cockpits absorb fragrances of long-gone fish and beaver pelts and feel skis smacking snowbanks.
During his 66-year, 20,200-hour career (and not finished yet, he claims), Grant kept notes and photographs from around the world and shares many of them in this book.
