    About this ebook

    From the Flight Engineer’s station on board the Nimbus almost any kind of weather could be produced to order and order it was for purposes galore. Whether it is for fund raising, industrial sabotage or TV Dramas, it was available from Wythenshawe Weather Centre, and aboard the Nimbus it was the Flight Engineer who controlled it all.

    This is the third book on weather making by the author, the first being –‘Making Rain and Other Things Is Our Business!’ and the second, - ‘A Clouds Life’. Tony Smith is a retired Further Education Lecturer and former RAFVR(T) and SCC RNR Officer. He has a wealth of experience of young people and all things flying. As a Bachelor of Education and former glider pilot, he is suitably qualified to waffle on about a lot of things.
    When Tony’s head is not in the clouds he builds model aircraft and helps a local Brass band.
    Tony is married and has two daughters, two grand daughters and a grandson. He lives in Atherton, a former mining and mill town in the North West of England.

    A.L. Smith

    Dr. A.L. Smith read her first full-length novel (The Boxcar Children, by Gertrude Chandler Warner) in the third grade and it spawned her passion for reading. According to Dr. Smith, the hallmark of a great story is the resounding presence of a character that transcends the final pages of the book.Angela is a native Louisianan, (Frierson) Lieutenant Colonel in the Army Reserves, practicing Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, a graduate of Grambling State University, and former member of the Lady Tigers basketball team. She is the author of an Amazon Best Seller and critically acclaimed novel Behind Closed Doors 2: Dana's Story. The short film adaptation of the novel, "Dana's Story" is the recipient of multiple independent film festival awards.In 2010, she participated in humanitarian relief efforts during the devastating earthquake in Haiti and provided anesthesia services to a countless number of victims, many of whom were children. This experience would have a profound impact on her views concerning socioeconomic disparities here in the U.S. and in countries abroad. Her second novel, Behind Closed Doors 2: Dana's Story, was heavily influenced by her experience in Haiti. As an active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., she takes seriously the organization's motto "Service to all Mankind".
