Great story, thanks for posting! A must read for all pilots is "Fate is the Hunter" by Earnest Gahn (Gahnn?). Great stories about pioneering early routes. When I used to instruct, a student of mine (he flew a Cessna 185 in Botswana and wanted to add a helicopter rating) said to me: "Read 'Fate is the Hunter'". I'd never heard of it but the title intrigued me. I'm so glad I picked it up...Wow.

Great book...my wifes father was a Navy P-3 Orion pilot. He recommended the book when we met.
A must read.
The aviation pioneers were amazing...
