As a senior aeronautical engineer with Britain's flagship airlines
in the 60s, 70s and 80s, it was engineer and playboy Nazie El
Masry's job to keep these man-made birds in perfect flying
condition. Turbulent Times and Clear Skies is the story of his
colourful exploits in the most glamorous industry of all, as he
defeated the odds to build an international aviation business of
his own - with offices in Singapore, Miami, Holland and the UK.
From the crew and pilots' parties to which he supplied contraband
liquor and introductions to the wildest international hotspots in
Libya, Tunis, Casablanca and Europe; to his early adventures
wheeling and dealing in 1970s Britain, along the way Nazie has
rubbed shoulders with slum landlords, show girls, heads of state
and movie stars. This is also the story of an Egyptian childhood
and a young man who lost his father but found happiness.
