Guest JW Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 Does anyone remember the name of the book by Robert Vesco's 707 pilot? I read it sometime around 1975 or 76, I think, when I was working with a couple of ex-Air America types, with lots of Pilatus time in Laos, DC6 running the blockade in Nigeria, massive variety of aircraft types, locales, and all sorts of stories from around the world. The Robert Vesco pilot story just seemed to be part of all of that. Something about Carpetbagger? I did a couple of searches and came up with nothing.

Azure Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 That sure rings a bell, either we have a copy in an unpacked box (three years now) or my husband gave me orders to purchase it if I ever came across it in a used book store. I believe the title was a Carpetbagger's Dreams, not sure now....guess I don't listen too well. I'm sure he knew who the author was also, so if you don't get the info before he gets home, I'll let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChicoChico Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 Hi Jim, Got the rampie on the case! Don't know about the book you're looking for. Can you direct me to where you have the retirement numbers posted on your AEF site? DO you happen to have WACON documents? Trying to do a little research here!
