By Dead Reckoning
Recollections of a Master Navigator
Lewis, Ralph
Ralph Lewis has produced a fascinating account of the experiences of a radio operator/navigator during what may be described as the formative years of those professions. The accounts of his wartime years with United Air Lines and of the many strange episodes with the legendary Transocean Air Lines after the war could be, without exaggeration, described as adventurous.
In addition to the sharply-written text, the book is illustrated exclusively with more than a hundred of Ralph's superb photographs that include rare shots of the Pacific Islands and atolls, the famous Transocean gold bullion airlift, the monkey flights, the royal chairlift in Saudi Arabia, and many others.
