The crews of RAF Ferry Command were the true pioneers of long range over-ocean flying, and the story of this flying, made without the sophistication of modern avionics, makes gripping reading. The author takes the reader into the cockpit of the Ferry Command Catalina flights between Bermuda and Scotland during the hard winter of 1942/43, 24-hour flights that tested men and machine to the ultimate. No less absorbing is the story of the polar flight between the United Kingdom and Canada's West Coast in a Handley Page Bomber. Ferry Command has been widely acclaimed for its graphic portrayal of war-time flying.uitgever: Airlfe Publishing Ltd
