Flight Into Hell by Hans Bertram is a gripping 1985 first-edition aviation chronicle that plunges readers into a WWII-era survival epic over northern Australia. Bertram’s crisp narrative, paired with period illustrations, turns the true story of a forced landing and grueling trek into a vivid geographic and historical lesson.

This vintage paperback arrives inscribed on the flyleaf, adding a personal touch for collectors of Australian aviation history. While a previous owner’s name has been discreetly whited-out, the internal pages remain clean and bright, and the closed edges show only light foxing—honest signs of age that suit its adventure pedigree.

Ideal for young-adult and adult fans of aircraft, exploration, and Down-Under true stories, the 110-page volume is smoke-free and ready for its next flight. Grab this scarce first printing and let Bertram’s Flight Into Hell carry you back to the daring days of wartime skies.
