Synopsis "Winners' Viewpoints: The Great 1927 Trans-Pacific Dole Race"

What was it like to fly from Oakland to Honolulu in a single-engine plane during August 1927? Was the $25,000 prize worth it? Did the resulting fame balance the risk? For the first time ever, this book presents the pilot and navigators stories written by them within days of their record-setting adventure. Pilot Art Goebel and navigator William V. Davis, Jr. take us with them on the "Woolaroc," their orange and blue Travel Air monoplane (NX869) as they enter the hazardous world of Golden Age trans-oceanic air racing. This book includes new and unpublished images and texts, and a very special letter from Davis to his soon-to-be wife. The book is a gripping tale of foresight and perseverance, with lessons for today.
