Front Jacket Excerpt:
" Whatever changes may lie ahead in the field of aviation it is unlikely
that they could outpace the stides taken since the first decade of the
twentieth century. This book is the story of five airmen who between them
cover the whole span of these seventy-odd years, and of the airplanes they
flew...These are Air Commadore Donald Clappen and Captain Walter Rogers,
both of whom fought through the first world war..There is Lionel Ashburner
who took up air traffic control.., There is Lt. Cdr. Fred Rice who flew
Swordfish with the Fleet Air Arm and has a long career in naval aviation;
and there was Captain Ralph White who, after flying in the war with the
Royal Canadian Air Force, took up civil flying as a career..."
