From a Bush Wing: Notes of an Alaska Wildlife Trooper

This is a long-awaited book about flying the Alaska Bush by the author of Beyond the Killing Tree: A Journey of Discovery. Herein Stephen Santiago Reynolds relates his flying experiences as an Alaska Wildlife Trooper-and those of other officers-while stationed throughout one of the most dangerous environments in the world. Whether tragic, humorous, or surrounding the simple beauty of flight, there is something that jumps out in many of these chapters-how not to fly or abuse the privilege of flying. If you are a pilot, you might see some familiar forms-or, better yet, you might think you are looking into a mirror. "If you learn how to improve your own safety record from one or more of these events, then this effort will have been worthwhile," says the author, "for you, for your friends and families, and for me."
