Hi gang -
After exhausting my Ernie Gann collection for the third or fourth time I stumbled on to another interesting read. The book is called "Fix On the Rising Sun" and has to do with the disappearance of Pan Am's Hawaii Clipper in the late 1930's. Officially the Martin M-130 is simply listed as "missing", but the author has some powerful evidense that suggests it was hi-jacked by renegade Japanese naval officers. You can get it from amazon or www.flyingclippers.com. There is also an out of date website associated with the book. www.hawaiiclipper.com.
Evidently the author has been black-listed by the government because of his research into the clipper disappearance and the Amelia Earhart disappearance.
It's real-life X-files $hit! I kept expecting Moulder and Scully to show up!
Cheers
