Airplanes

  • Airframe.  By Michael Crichton
  • Flight 116 is Down / Cooney, a fast read that should work for girls or boys.
  • FREEFALL by William Hoffer.  In 1983, an Air Canada plane ran out of fuel at 41,000 feet because of an error in the switch to the metric system.  The pilot managed to land the jet as if it were a glider.
  • The heritage of kitty hawk by Bonney, Walter
