Summary

Working for Howard Hughes and TWA was a job to be envied in the 1950's. Dee Merian tells of her high flying adventures during the reign of this airline and its famous owner. From the best hotels in Europe to The Plaza in New York, Hughes treated his crew first class as they flew passengers to major cities around the world. In the 1940's and 1950's career choices were slim for women. Author Dee Merian, influenced by Hollywood movies of airplanes stories as a young girl, grabbed her brass ring to see the world aboard a Trans World Airlines airplane. Thousands applied for this new job and few were chosen; follow the adventures of one such young woman who met movie stars and famous entertainers as she pursued her dreams.
