A must read for those interested in the early days of aviation in the North.

Bent Props & Blow Pots/Rex Terpening.

My Life In The North/Jack Lamb.
Jack once bought a DC-3 from Ariana Afghan Airlines in Kabul and ferried it to Winnipeg MB. The leg from Kabul to Teheran was with his wife as co-pilot. The fact she didn't have a pilot's license didn't stop him.

Both Wess McIntosh and the late Don McVicar tell the story of Ferry Command in WWII from personal experience. Don's books are out of print, but his daughter is beginning to re-release them in an electronic version. Don's daughter is on PPRuNe, I can't remember her handle.
