ABOUT
The most colourful legends of the air belong to the charter pilots - high-flying gentlemen of fortune willing to take the controls of any type of aircraft, carry any kind of payload, go anywhere.
They are men eager for uncertainty, afraid only of the safe routine, and their wandering paths cross in snatching refugees from the frenzy of civil war, smuggling guns to lost causes, delivering pilgrims to Mecca, hunting whales in the Antarctic, prospecting for oil in the jungles of South America, carrying gold out of Africa and opium from the East. They have led the progress of Britain's independent airlines from ex-bombers to Boeing 707s and VC-10s from Tiger Moths to helicopters.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images.
