PORT ON THE SKYWAYS.—This view of the crowded island of Manhattan is from “B.O.A.C. Book of Flight,” published by Max Parrish. From 12,000 feet, the regular patterns of New York’s streets, the fringe of docks and Central Park are clear, though the height dwarfs the great skyscrapers. “B.O.A.C. Book of Flight” is a very well compiled and beautifullyillustrated story of B.O.A.C.’s operations in this age of jet flying. Designers, builders and operators of aircraft contribute chapters, and there are instructive pieces about weather forecasting, airport control, feeding passengers, and unusual cargoes.
