The Devious Elephant

Here are seven tales about things taking flight: sandhill cranes and albatross on the one hand, Flying Fortress and Messerschmitt on the other; in between, a story about an Air Force unmanned air vehicle pilfered and used for teenager's revenge in an attempted raid on the Super Bowl; a story about WW-II veterans flying combat in WW-I aircraft; another about espionage and a feisty miniature drone's jousts with a hummingbird, and, somehow, a story about polar bears and the yet to be realized warming of the globe.
