Great stuff.

My dad flew for CNAC and then for the AAF in the CBI.

“Great stuff.”

Yep, agree. If you’re interested in the early days of commercial flight suggest you read the book “The Long Way Home”. It’s about a Pan Am Clipper that was in New Zealand when Pearl Harbor was bombed. Being that the route back by Asia was no longer possible the crew was directed to bring the plane back to the U.S. by flying west. Quite an adventure for sure, a good read. You can find it on Amazon.
