From Pickle Lake to Paradise

"If she'll float, she'll fly !!!! " "If it fits through the door, it's not too heavy !! "

"Don't waste time checking the weather ... we're going anyway !!!

This was the can-do attitude of the bush pilot of yesterday. To comply with

Government regulations, every operator had a set of scales on the property,

but they were rusted up and covered with gravel because nobody ever used

them. If that plane didn't sink at the dock after being loaded, you better be

able to get it in the air if you want to stay employed.

This book is about those lawless days in aviation. The days of wooden planes

and iron men!!
