A Flying Affair

I thought there were good and not-so-good things about A Flying Affair. The writing was polished. I liked the way the plot provided insight into the motivations and achievements of early women aviators (aviatrixes?), of the way aviation caught the imagination of the common people. \\r\\n\\r\\nBut there were more issues than things to recommend. Yes, the writing was polished but there was far too much telling, too many instances of 1920's slang, too many named characters. There was too much plot and too many subplots. \\r\\n\\r\\nAnd there was no Christian element. Sure, the characters say grace once or twice and I think I recall Mittie making a reference to the man upstairs, but I'd classify this as a clean read rather than Christian fiction. \\r\\n\\r\\nOverall, A Flying Affair didn't fly for me.
