Would you risk your life to ride in a 90-year-old car? How about flying a 93-year-old airplane?
When Mathew Northway locates, buys, and learns to fly a 1929 Brunner-Winkle Bird biplane, he embarks upon an adventurous and educational journey with an extraordinary machine that is not a museum piece, but a flying plane, complete with all its smoke, spitting oil, thundering noise, and quirky flying habits.
In Unbroken Chain: The Tao of the Brunner-Winkle Bird, Mathew documents not only the mechanical issues discovered and resolved and the new skills developed and honed but also his harrowing adventures and the rich history of the aircraft and its prior owners. Perhaps a spirit contained within the antique aircraft was revealed along the way.
