Description
In 1948, Hugh Burns Hay, a decorated Second World War navigator, returned to university to finish his medical degree. As part of his studies, he requested the files of sixteen Royal Canadian Air Force pilots in an effort to identify accident proneness. The crashes occurred between February 1943 and February 1944.
Included are the details of the accidents, the Court of Inquiry’s findings, plus updated information from both military sources and families of the pilots and crewmembers. Second World War veterans and post-war Royal Canadian Air Force pilots contribute their thoughts about each accident.
Generously illustrated, Quietus: Last Flight offers a unique insight into the Second World War on the Home Front in Canada, as well as a glimpse into post-war aviation medicine and present-day aviation accident investigation. 367 pages.
