Alaska's Sky Follies: The Funny Side of Flying in

This book is an authentic series of exciting stories about the incredible bush flying. Having spent a few years in Alaska, I can attest to their accuracy. It is a series of thrilling stories. I recommend this book to anyone interested in flying and it's history in Alaska. It reports avation skills at the top end.

Alaska Sky Follies has the making of an Alaskan aviation classic. A series of great stories that will keep you chuckling on those long winter nights and jiggling the coffee in your cup. Well written and fast moving, it belongs on the shelf of all those interested in flying or Alaska. I also highly recommend, Flying North South East and West, a great read on a young couples struggles to start their life in Alaska. The book is filled with aviation that starts in the north, and progresses to the sands of Africa. It also covers a ignored segment of aviation history, Cargo Flying. Strap in and come along on a expedition to the North Pole in a bush plane, then cargo flying four engine jets to Africa, and bush flying 737's on slick runways in the north country. Another great read. Flying North South East and West: Arctic to the Sahara

This is for anyone who is into 1) Alaska, 2) Flying small planes, 3) humorous stories. Some of the stories are too strange to have been made up. This is a collection of short true stories from Alaskan bush pilots of the 1950's onward. Some are hilarious, some are hilarious only because no one got hurt and we can laugh about it now. It is a good quick read for someone who wants the flavor of the Alaskan frontier. It is a short book but fun to read. highly recommended.

Rychetnik provides a brief yet entertaining look into the bush pilots of Alaska. His presentation is humorous and easy to read. Definitely worth a look for all those interested in the funnier side of bush flying.
