Veteran Reno pilot Gus Pappas has written “If Airplanes Could Talk II”.

This book is the continuance of his first book “If Airplanes Could Talk.”

Pappas retired from the air National Guard after serving for 36 years, during which time he introduced many of the air technician programs still in use today. After retiring he entered the civilian aviation industry as a flight engineer for Southern Air Transport. He helped to improve their pilot-upgrading program by writing system-knowledge texts and quick reference handbooks of the L-100 and L-382, the civilian versions of the military C-130 airplane.

“If Airplanes Could Talk II” is a 84-page paperback with a retail price of $20.

    Just FYI, and not meaning to cut into Mr. Pappas’ well deserved (like any struggling writer) profits, but Amazon shows three books under the same name. And Mr. Pappas’ first book is not among them.
