Hi Alec,
I'm still working on my research of your great grandfather. I would love to get more information. Was your grandfather Alf's son Wesley? I understand he was also a pilot for Pan Am. I have gone through the various archives and gotten plenty of info on the crash itself, but not so much on your great grandfather. Just a few passing mentions in several books. Which were the books that you mentioned?
Any help would be appreciated.
