This story is an account of events in the life of a furloughed nonscheduled airline pilot who felt compelled to buy a DC-3 in a desperate attempt to create job security, and thereby save his rocky marriage. It is unique, primarily, in how a machine, this DC-3 airplane, became so deeply engrained within the daily lives of people it touched. It is a tale in tribute to the flawless performance and reliability of a magnificent machine and how it raised havoc for America's government subsidized airline industry, who through dirty politics managed to force the government to rewrite air rules dealing the death blow to a colorful era in American aviation.Houlihan, Tad is the author of '3 And Me', published 2004 under ISBN 9781418477714 and ISBN 1418477710.
