Default best flying books?

Thanks for the heads up Paul. I actually have a copy of the film in my
library. Bob Scott was a close personal friend for many years.
The "inside story" on how the book was actually written by Bob is quite
interesting as he explained it to me. He was a wonderful fellow and we
miss him a ton. He was active right up to the last.
I actually think I've been exposed to the story for so long now, you could
probably quote me a single line from the film and I could nail the scene
in a few seconds :-))

You are most welcome Dudley. I envy you your close friendship with Col
Scott. Sure wish I could have known him.

I have had the film in my library on video tape for many years. But, tape
does deteriorate over time, so I plan on recording the TCM broadcast to the
Sat Receiver Hard Drive, then put it on DVD. THAT should last for the rest
of my lifetime. :-))))
