For with almost each chronicle presented herein is also included some relevant iota of ‘brain-food’ a pilot needs at hand to make – and keep – flying and aviation the inherently safe endeavor it is today. Those who have risen “up, up into the delirious blue” in years past may well see themselves – albeit a much younger self – in some of these stories. For those who dream of a life in the sky – come sit at the feet of those who have gone before: Listen, young Skywalker, and learn from the Masters. For everyone who has worn the wings and shouldered the authority of Pilot-in-Command – and for those of you who will do so in the future – this book was written for you.
