Tasman Echo Alpha is the embellished experience of former air New Zealand pilot Guy Clapshaw at a time when airline flight brought magic and romance to lives. Characters include Richard Whacker, the aircrew scheduler who managed to get all the aircraft overseas and their crews back in New Zealand, the operations manager who only hired people with bird names, and aircrew who performed extraordinarily well in emergency situations.

Guy Clapshaw s flying career started when he won an R.A.F. Flying Scholarship at seventeen. His tertiary education was a two-year R.A.F. Pilots Course where he first began his lifelong observations of the many unique characters and bizarre situations encountered in aviation. He has flown almost everything from World War Two jet fighters, Fox Moths, Dominies, DC-3s and DC-8s to Jumbo Jet 747s. Approaching 80 years old, he still flies after 63 years in the air and intends to keep on flying until he gets it right.
