Unfortunately, the places that need hovercraft are tough, rugged, god-forsaken and not in the least bit glamorous - just like John and Russ, in fact.

Download or read book Press Ganged written by Celia Andrews and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the press and phone hacking controversy never far from the public's mind Press Ganged tells of a raw recruit setting out on a journalistic career in the 1960s in a same-but-very-different atmosphere from that of the 21st century. The stories covered are fictional, loosely based on personal experience, ranging from defying the Ministry of Defence to probing the occult, uncovering sleeze in high places to monitoring progress of an airport extension protest, and generally being present at people's joyous and tragic moments. The headlines might not always tell it as it was.The whole is told against a background of life in the computer- and-mobile- phone-free newsroom with a cast of news gatherers, supervised by an early version of Mr. Murdoch, and their personal stories.

Author :Jenny Pattrick Publisher :Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited ISBN 13 :1869796926 Total Pages :263 pages Book Rating :4.8/5 (697 download)
Download or read book Landings written by Jenny Pattrick and published by Penguin Random House New Zealand Limited. This book was released on 2011-08-26 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vivid and evocative, this is a moving novel of a unique time and place from one of New Zealand's favourite authors. The Whanganui River at the turn of the twentieth century is a busy thoroughfare, taking sightseers through the spectacular landscape by paddle steamer and acting as highway for the sparse scatterings of settlements along its twisting length. The people who have made it their home are a diverse collection, from Samuel Blencoe, trying to forget his past life as a convict, to the hoteliers at Pipiriki, the nuns at Jerusalem, the Maori families, the Chinese market gardener and the farmers, like Danny and Stella, trying to tame the wild bush. There's also Bridie, the strange, silent girl, who haunts the banks of the river where the accident occurred that robbed her of her mind. Like the tributaries that trickle down the mountains and join the mighty river, so the lives of these people come together in this vivid and moving tale of a stunningly unique place.

Download or read book Blind Landings written by Erik M. Conway and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2006-11-04 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When darkness falls, storms rage, fog settles, or lights fail, pilots are forced to make "instrument landings," relying on technology and training to guide them through typically the most dangerous part of any flight. In this original study, Erik M. Conway recounts one of the most important stories in aviation history: the evolution of aircraft landing aids that make landing safe and routine in almost all weather conditions. Discussing technologies such as the Loth leader-cable system, the American National Bureau of Standards system, and, its descendants, the Instrument Landing System, the MIT-Army-Sperry Gyroscope microwave blind landing system, and the MIT Radiation Lab's radar-based Ground Controlled Approach system, Conway interweaves technological change, training innovation, and pilots' experiences to examine the evolution of blind landing technologies. He shows how systems originally intended to produce routine, all-weather blind landings gradually developed into routine instrument-guided approaches. Even so, after two decades of development and experience, pilots still did not want to place the most critical phase of flight, the landing, entirely in technology's invisible hand. By the end of World War II, the very concept of landing blind therefore had disappeared from the trade literature, a victim of human limitations.
Book Synopsis Destination Disaster by : Andrew J. Brookes
Download or read book Destination Disaster written by Andrew J. Brookes and published by Ian Allan Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On any given day, more than four million people around the world take to the air on one of 38,000 flights operated daily by the airlines. The reassuring news is that the fatal accident rate per million flights for large aircraft operations is now about half what is was 10 years ago. It is therefore 20 times safer to get airborne In a commercial airliner than it is to drive to the airport in the first place. More people die annually from falling down the stairs than they do from fatal air crashes. None the less, aircraft accidents do occur, and in the sheer scale of the horror and devastation wrought, it is sometimes hard to bring these statistics into focus. Destination Disaster is Andrew Brookes' latest investigation into the causes and effects of aircraft disasters. It is a responsible and detailed analysis of some of the most noteworthy of recent aircraft accidents. The past few years have been overshadowed by a number of major disasters - some accidental, others deliberate - and the book examines in detail the factors behind these various events.Among significant disasters covered are the loss of the Air France Concorde In Paris in 2000, the crash of golfer Payne Stewart's Learjet In 1999 and the momentous events of 11 September 2001. Deliberately examined in a non-controversial and objective way, the accidents and disasters recorded in Destination Disaster paradoxically emphasise just how safe contemporary flight is. However, as in all things, there remains an element of risk, and the book is a fascinating examination of the issues of safety raised in contemporary aviation.

Book excerpt: The Georgia plantation known as Magnolia Landing has been an ideal place to grow up for Malayna and Hattie, two girls of different races born just hours apart.

That is until the war and Northern soldiers come to Magnolia Landing. This is their story of love, friendship, and survival... against all odds.
