Über den Autor
Johnny Kent grew up in Winnipeg and became the youngest licensed pilot in Canada when at just 17. He grabbed experience and flying hours wherever and whenever he could and was constantly on the lookout for a career in flying. His chance came when he was offered an RAF commission in the 1930s and the rest is history. He published his memoirs in 1971 and died in 1985.
