From Sam Longo AME, A&P - Richard Kruszka, a US subscriber, was interested in Nordair and the smaller airlines. Might I suggest that he pick up a copy of my book, 'A Wrench in the Wings, Life Lessons from an Aircraft Mechanic' chronicling my adventures working for Nordair in the 70's as well as Air Canada later in my career. |
Available in Amazon.ca and Amazon.com (USA) Keep up the great work on the Netletter! Cheers, Sam Longo AME, A&P |
