Munro (1921-1994) consistently displayed a dogged persistence in overcoming every aeronautical challenge facing him, and despite adversity he made outstanding contributions to Canadian aviation. He began flying in Toronto in 1937 and joined the RCAF in 1940. He was posted as a Spitfire pilot for day intruder work in France and bomber escort duty, then served as a night fighter pilot on the North Sea patrol. Following WWII he became a flying newsman for 17 years. He was later selected as Expo ' 67 Polar Ambassador and flew a single-engine aircraft through the high Arctic to honour Canada's pioneer bush pilots. He is one of Canada's most distinguished parachutists and holds the highest international license. He made 528 descents by day and night as chief instructor and design tester for the North American Parachute Company.. Hard Cover.
