Default Book Recommendation

I just finished reading "North Star over my Shoulder", by Bob Buck (TWA, Retired). He had a fascinating career. I highly recommend it for all here... You will enjoy it.

Yep, one of my favorites.

I met him and his son a year after I read that book and some of his others and got my copy of Weather Flying signed by both.

What a wealth of aviation experience he is!
