Book Club Edition. This is a fictional story- fast paced, exciting, richly textured with memorable characters. Yet we think you will find it more than a story. It could be about your airport too. Lincoln International Airport calls itself boastfully: Aviation Crossroads of the World. Yet those with inside knowledge- like Mel Bakersfield, the airport's brilliant yet career-jinxed general manager- are aware of grave deficiencies. Operational areas are outmoded to the point of danger; air traffic control is overtaxed; the supposedly- modern glass and chrome main terminal has become a whited sepulcher. Against this background is set a dramatic, behind-scenes story of seven eventful airport hours during a mid-winter snowstorm, and of the men and women- with pressures, passions and problems of their own-who share them. You will meet: Joe Patroni, cocky and genial airline maintenance chief, striving to clear a disabled aircraft from an urgently needed runway; Air Traffic Controller Keith Bakersfeld, suffering stress and conscience stricken by the memory of an air disaster for which he was responsible; Tanya Livingston, passenger relations agent (and attractive divorcee) whose suspicions, triggered by a sharp-eyed Customs Inspector, reveal an unsuspected crisis; Captain (and check pilot) Vernon Demerest, arrogant, admired by women, and despising "ground bound penguins,' especially Airport Commissioners; Elliot Freemantle, crusading lawyer, leading a group of homeowners incensed by airport noise; Gwen Meighen, hot tempered English brunette from "Stewardess Row;" Ada Quonsett, a prim old lady who explains her so-easy techniques as an aerial stowaway; D.O. Guerrero, a psychotic with a homemade bomb.and many others.
