Where's the Runway? and Other Flying Stories. Herb Tabak,
Where's the Runway?And Other Flying Stories: Adventures of a General Aviation Airplane and Hot Air Balloon Pilot.
A fast-paced chronicle of adventures and misadventures of three decades of flying small airplanes and hot air balloons.
The 1970's and 1980's were the boom days of general aviation when learning to fly was easy, cheap and somewhat free from stifling government regulation. Availability of the GI Bill and low fuel prices enabled many, including the author, to learn to fly and add ratings while enjoying the nostalgia provided by the use of the few remaining barnstorming era airfields and training from former World War II pilots.
This book memorializes many logbook entries of the author and includes some of the adventures he shared with his friends, family and others while flying small planes and hot air balloons.
Herb Tabak has logged over 2000 hours flying time in small planes and hot air balloons.
Excellent book of short stories for the aviation enthusiast in your family.
