    Hardcover. Condition: Poor. Dust Jacket Condition: Acceptable. Spine damaged/rug beschadigd Dutch HET LIED VAN DE LUCHT is een zeer bizonder boek, dat door zijn veelzijdigheid boeit van de eerste tot de laatste bladzijde. Guy Murchie heeft een enorm aantal gegevens op het gebied van de aviatiek, navigatie, meteorologie, astronomie, aerodynamiek enz., enz., verwerkt tot een voor iedereen interessant relaas. Met de schrijver, een ervaren navigatie-officier, maken wij een trans-atlantische vlucht mee en naar aanleiding van zijn werkzaamheden, waarnemingen en overpeinzingen weidt hij uit over: navigatie in vroeger tijden van Noach tot Columbus, over de navigatiekunst van de Polynesiërs, Pheniciërs, Grieken, Arabieren en Indianen, over de verschillende luchtlagen, over wind, storm en tornado?s, sneeuw, hagel en bliksem, over weersvoorspelling, het vliegen van vogels, de samenstelling van een veer en een sneeuwvlok, het magnetisme van de aarde, regenbogen, het noorderlicht, de wet van de zwaartekracht, ?straalstromen? die op 11 km hoogte met een snelheid van 650 km per uur rond de aarde razen en die een grote tijden brandstofbesparing gaan betekenen voor transatlantische vluchten, over navigatie via gerichte televisie-antennes op de huizen, over supersonische moeilijkheden, raketten, de ruimtevaart en alles waarmee een vliegtuigbemanning maar te maken heeft en ondervinden kan, vooral bij intercontinentale vluchten. En dat niet in de vorm van theorie of beschouwing, maar deze schrijver heeft het talent dit alles zeer luchtig op te dienen en te doorspekken met het dikwijls adembenemend relaas van allerlei vliegavonturen, als gevolg van technische en cosmische storingen.
