Seasoned pilot and aviation writer Olsen offers portraits of four kinds of peacetime flying that aren’t too well known to the public but put aircraft and pilots at the kind of risk commonly associated with combat. One kind involves flying dog teams into remote portions of the Arctic, landing on icecaps for exploration and rescue.
