"Because truth
really does trump fiction for drama, Peter Stekel's Final Flight
reads like a good novel and sticks with you like a particularly affecting
play. Superbly researched, compellingly written, and lovingly relived,
this gripping tale both solves an old mystery and serves as a moving
tribute to all fallen fliers. By actually trekking to the remote site of
the crash and making a stunning discovery there, Stekel rescues a sad
story from dead-end status and turns it into a living memorial." |
