Idaho Aviation
Since the dawn of aviation, Idahoans have employed aircraft to carry people, groceries, mail, freight, and livestock over inhospitable terrain. Idaho's airstrips are the stuff of dreams, offering pilots, anglers, hikers, and river-rafters access to deep wilderness less than an hour from the city. Aerial firefighting was born--and is based--in Idaho. Flight instructors in Idaho prepared thousands of pilots to fight in World War II. As the birthplace of United Airlines, with its famed "friendly skies," Idaho is one of the country's most aviation-friendly states. Government officials, private landowners, and volunteers have worked together to create and then preserve an infrastructure of big-city, small-town, and backcountry airstrips that are the envy of pilots worldwide.
Historic Signs over California’s Roadways
Appearing in this book are images featuring over 200 signs erected over roadways in California. Dating from the Civil War era into the 21st century, these signs were made of wood, metal, and stucco, and many of them were electrified.

Mountain, Canyon, and Backcountry Flying
"For more than a century, pilots have been intrigued by the challenges of flight in the highest mountains and the deepest canyons on every continent.

STOLin' With a Super Cub
R.K. "Dick" Williams has been flying since 1972 and has amassed close to 20,000 flight hours, with almost half of those hours in wilderness terrain. Almost half of that grand total has also been single-pilot, and most of those without autopilot. He has also enjoyed thousands of hours in jets and turboprops with excellent crews, spent thousands of hours as a flight instructor, and served ten years as an FAA Pilot Examiner.This is Dick's third aviation-related book, and in it he re-publishes his original Super Cub Pilot's Association Newsletter Safety Editorials from 30 years ago before exploring the higher principles of "Zen" in backcountry flying, a place all pilots can enjoy visiting. As much as he loves flying, the education and safety of aviation have become just as important to him.Williams has flown Super Cubs for close to 2,000 hours. Although his favorite aircraft remains the Dehavilland Twin Otter, which he calls The Ambassador (because of the opportunities he had to share it with other pilots and friends) the Super Cub remains in his top five of over 160 aircraft makes and models flown.
