"Phil Garratt, the man in charge of de Havilland Canada, conceived the Beaver as a half-ton flying pickup truck, an airplane that could carry more than half a ton into tight places on land, water, and snow. .. the Beaver became the generals' Jeep in the Korean War... and the generals' favorite transport into fishing spots in peacetime." from the back cover.
