The full story for each title below will appear in the new book "Aircraft Wrecks in The Mountains and Deserts of California" (3rd Edition), by Gary Patric Macha and Don R. Jordan. This new book is now being shipped. Contact Don R. Jordan Gary Patric Macha , or Info Net Publishing for ordering information. Or you may order it from your favorite retail book stores.
There are over 528 pages in this book, with more than 355 photographs of California aircraft accidents from 1909 to 2002. There are also 27 detailed stories by Don that will put the reader in the cockpit at the moment of impact. In "Aircraft Wrecks" you'll read about what really caused the crash and death of Capt. Joseph McConnell Jr., America's first triple jet ace. And you'll visit the crash sites of the famous Northrop YB-49 Flying Wing on the Mojave Desert, and the ill-fated Tells Peak B-17C near Lake Tahoe, California.
In addition, you'll visit the final resting place of a World War II era C-46 that crashed in 1945. This wreckage is located in the deep American River Canyon just outside of Sacramento, California. Nearly 80% of this wreckage is still on site, but hidden in the thick underbrush and covered by decades of foliage.
