As many Alaska books that have crossed my desk, why I have I just now found Jorgy, the native pilot? 35,000hrs in the bush, middle east, and Africa. No crashes either. It is a great read authored by Jean Lester.

He was a great guy in real life. His son sells frozen custard at the health food store.

Thanks, I gathered that from reading the book. It appears that he was a super pilot, but didn't boast about it.
