Outdoor Quote: Stewart Blacker
Somewhat to my dismay Everest bore that immense snow plume which means a mighty wind tearing across the summit, lifting Clouds of powered snow and driving it with blizzard force eastward. Up went the machine into a sky of indescribable blue till we came on a level with the great peak itself, This astonishing picture of Everest, its plume now gradually lessening, its tremendous southern cliffs flanked by Makalu, was a sight which must remain in the mind all the years of one's life.
- Lt. Col. L. V. Stewart Blacker, first flight over Everest
