Description

This book is part of the Osprey colour series and focuses on Alaskan commercial propeller-driven aeroplanes from 1940-1960. It provides a detailed look at the aviation history of Alaska during this period, showcasing the various aircraft that played crucial roles in the state's development and transportation. The book likely includes color photographs and illustrations of these historic aircraft, along with information about their operations, significance, and the unique challenges of flying in Alaska's rugged terrain and harsh climate.

 

Three Northern Air Cargo DC - 6A's lined up on the Anchorage ramp in the sunshine of an Alaskan morning in 1986. N.A.C. bought its first DC - 6 in 1969, and has subsequently increased the fleet to a round dozen.
