    It was brought to my attention that some of you might not be aware that I illustrated a book written by Ernie Gann. It was way back in 1974 and has some wonderful writing in it about the history of commercial aviation world wide. No money in it for me but it is book worth having in an aviators library. I think that used book stores still have a few as does Amazon. The title is
    " Ernest K. Gann's Flying Circus"

    You're writing a book yourself, right?

    Yes, my effort is reaching the end. Nothing even close to Gann's stuff but it's relaxed and scrambles over a lot of territory. Didn't leave out the fun parts.
    Had a few weeks of interruption with lung surgery so it slowed me down. Shooting for Sept or Oct. for completion.
