Rex Terpening is one of the very last of a breed of air engineers who flew with the bush pilots and shared all of the routine hazards they faced. Now in his late 80’s Rex is a perceptive observer who writes not only with an insight gained from a lifetime in aviation—much of it at the grassroots level—but with humour and sensitivity.
