James "Doc" McFadden and the Hurricane Hunters
Deliberately flying an airplane into a hurricane might seem crazy. Deliberately flying a plane into a hurricane for the purpose of research, to better understand, and thus better prepare people, for the hurricane’s wrath might seem heroic. Doing that nearly six hundred times in a career spanning more than five decades, might just make you one of the greatest unsung heroes of the modern era. The History Guy remembers James 'Doc' McFadden and the Hurricane Hunters.
