Black Men Can Fly - the story of George S. Lima

George S. Lima's story spans 86 years and goes from New England to Harlem, to the Deep South and back. He was an aviator, Tuskegee Airman, when it was thought that black men couldn't fly. He has faced poverty, prejudice, adversity and ignorance, and through it all, has maintained a love of life, an undying perseverance, and a quiet noble dignity. Along with vintage photographs, historical film, personal insights and interviews, we hope to tell an exciting and revealing story of a man, a people and a nation.

Mamm, you can't expect for info. and data that you wish to possess to drop on your lap; unless you're a silver spooner and it shall be delivered to you on a silver plater at the snap of your finger. Otherwise, do like we do and read trade and professional magazines, visit civil and commercial aviation websites, etc,
