5.0 out of 5 stars
all those old aviation agreements that get mentioned,
This review is from: AIRWAYS ABROAD PB (Smithsonian History of Aviation and Spaceflight Series) (Paperback)
As messenger boy in the Travel Agency I learned about cabotage and fifth freedom rights. You could write a book about it. Wait! This guy did!WWII created modern intercontinental aviation. Initially, this business was greeted with much of the wariness today's WTO engenders. Anglo-American unity broke down over aviation even before the war was over. The negotiations required to resolve these conflicts, especially the famous Chicago Conference of November 1944, are detailed in some depth by University of Wisconsin lecturer in journalism Henry Ladd Smith in this 1950 book. Indeed his writing has much journalistic color, and he always discusses which Congressman is flakking for which airline. Aviation was so important to the United States and President Roosevelt--even at this late stage of the war and his life--that he dealt with all aviation matters more or less personally. The concept of "fifth freedoms" was FDR's. I think it deserves all five stars.
