Tarzan of New Guinea
Jos Crisp, a famed flyer in New Guinea during commercial operations, survives a perilous crash high in the Bitol Valley. After an hours long climb through cloud funnels and jungle, his Fox Moth plummets into a tree at 6000 feet, leaving him perched for four days before a rescue party reaches him. He earns the nickname Terman from fellow pilots.
