Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The 'flying business' seizes Patrick Montalto at an early age. A young, Italian-American from New York, his earliest memories of a fragile biplane avoiding a disastrous end on a summer's day in the country provide the single-minded impetus to an improbable journey. It starts when his father and a friend chip in for a harmless airplane ride from a small grass airstrip in the Westchester hills. It is a coming of age journey as Patrick learns to fly on that field during a Depression that doesn't allow for many dreams. As the Second World War engulfs Europe, it takes Patrick to a barely clandestine British operation to recruit American flyers, where he has to choose between one dream of the sky and another of a college education.<p. His choice finds him first in the cold skies of Canada and then the gray, damp and simmering strife of Northern Ireland, where he makes lifelong friends and learns the basics of being a fighter pilot. Expecting to join fellow Americans flying Spitfires in the RAF Eagle Squadrons, his mission is instead flying American P-40s in the bloody skies over Egypt's Western Desert trying to stop Rommel's Afrika Korps from rampaging to Suez.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Sky Suspended continues the story of Patrick Montalto, now an Ace, and a USAAF Lieutenant newly transferred from the British Western Desert Air Force. Arriving just weeks after Operation Torch, the Allied invasion of North Africa in November 1942, Lt. Montalto finds himself in the 3rd Fighter Squadron 104th Fighter Group, flying not his sturdy P-40, but Reverse Lend-Lease British Spitfires. With new friends and old, he battles through the winter over Kasserine, El Guettar and Cape Bon, adding kills to his score. He briefly renews a boyhood romance with a visiting Red Cross volunteer before moving with the war to much-conquered Sicily. On a temporary stint to Italy, Patrick is shot down in rugged Abruzzi. Badly wounded, he is rescued by a local teacher, Vivianna Altessa. A spark is ignited before he is smuggled back to the Allied lines, vowing to return. But instead the 104th is moved to Corsica, covering the long slog up the Italian boot. Spring of 1944 finds the Group transitioning to the P-51 Mustang. Operating from new bases in Southern Italy, Patrick's mission is to escort 15th Air Force heavy bombers pummeling Hitler's Reich, and to find Vivianna.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The primary objective of this project was to identify and communicate the benefits and risks of disinfecting wet weather flows by evaluating available disinfection technologies and identifying disinfection by-products and their potential risks to aquatic and human life. A decision-making framework was developed that could be used as a model to guide combined sewer overflow (CSO), sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) and stormwater (SW) disinfection control policies. This project was implemented as a case study in collaboration with the Onondaga County Department of Water Environment Protection (Syracuse, NY). A literature review was completed that identified appropriate disinfection technologies and the associated disinfection by-products. A disinfection demonstration was conducted to verify findings of the literature review and fill data gaps. The data collected during this project were used by local stakeholders to select the most appropriate technologies. Information regarding the benefits and risks of disinfecting wet weather flows was also presented to the public during a public workshop. All four technologies that were piloted achieved the United States Environmental Protection Agency's bacterial criteria. Ozonation and UV produced no measurable residuals or by-products and resulted in no effluent aquatic toxicity as measured through WET testing. Chlorination/dechlorination and chlorine dioxide did produce residuals and disinfection by-products including chlorate, chlorite, trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids. With the exception of chlorite, these by-product concentrations were less than drinking water standards. Chlorination/dechlorination and chlorine dioxide did result in effluent aquatic toxicity as measured through WET testing. In the case of chlorination/dechlorination the toxicity appeared to be related to residual chlorine and in the case of chlorine dioxide the toxicity appeared to be related to residual chlorine dioxide and/or chlorite. Residuals can easily be controlled through proper dechlorination in a full-scale application. The chlorite was a by-product of the particular chlorine dioxide production method; this could be avoided by a generation method that produces a chlorite-free product, which would be more appropriate for a full-scale application. Based on findings from the literature review and disinfection demonstration, hazards associated with wet weather flow disinfection appear low, but the potential for public opposition can be high. Therefore, proper communication planning to include stakeholders in the decision-making process and conduct public outreach is required. Stakeholders were included throughout the project through workshops.…
