(More customer reviews)Victor flew in an era when modern day aviators with the romance of flying in their blood would love to have flown. It is a forgotten era but with Victors book the memory of those wonderful days lives on. Those wishing to persue aviation as a carreer or a hobby need to read this book as a background to appreciate the great courage of the airmen of that day, and the incredible advances in technology that have made flying what it is today. The book is in its second print and is available at exclusive books or direct from Vivienne at vivbw1@mweb.co.za Captain Wally Waldeck SA
