B-17 landing accident today, Van Nuys, Calif.

As far as I can tell, he only did two genuine factual aviation books, but I
may be wrong! (maybe you can put me right!) I went to my local library and
found a whole load of his, but they were all fiction, except "flying
Circus", for some reason, I don't know why exactly, I cannot read fiction,
Science fiction if I'm in the right mood (rarely), but when it comes to
flying, its gotta be factual!!

Its a transport version of the B24, no guns, no bombs, no ammo, just a
big
transport version of the B24, I first heard about them was in E. K.
Gann's
book, "Fate is the Hunter" He flew one and just missed the Taj Mahal!!
Good Book; Well worth the read!!!

That'd be the "Gremlin's Castle", yes? I seem to recall that chapter
being excerpted in Reader's Digest.

Ended up reading a lot of aviation books after seeing excerpts in RD.
