World Wide Airways

An old departed friend Don McVicar ( ex ferry command WW2 ) ran this out of Montreal Canada doing aircraft deliveries worldwide and working on such things as the DEW line in the Canadian arctic and the railroad construction from Sept Isles to Schefferville Quebec.
He published some great books about those days such as "North Atlantic Cat" and "Distant Early Warning"
His daughter contacted me recently.
Anyone have any memories / photos of Ferry Command or WWA?
Cheers
Albatross

PS Great film here of the construction of the DEW line
