"This book is much more than a history of Gander's Ferry Command. It is a comprehensive record lasting from the first survey to Newfoundland's retrieval of the airport from Canada. It is a masterly piece of work which, no doubt, will find its place on the bookshelves of aviation enthusiasts."
- Frank Tibbo, Gander aviation historian, author of Charlie Baker George: The Story of Sabena OOCBG, and member of the Order of Newfoundland and Labrador
"An impressively well researched and written narrative history describing the progress, incidents, personalities, VIPs, infrastructure, the importance of accurate weather forecasting, the aircraft, the impact on the locality, and the inevitable intervention of bureaucracy and politics."
- Guy Warner, Irish aviation historian, Flying in Ireland
"Author and historian Darrell Hillier delivers a trenchant and illuminating account of the Ferry Command."
- Joan Sullivan, The Telegram
"An eminently readable book that will appeal to anyone interested in Gander, military aviation, or Newfoundland and Labrador's contribution to the Second World War."
- Diana Trafford, aviation historian and blogger at Flights of History
