We talked with author Jack El-Hai about his book Non-Stop: A Turbulent History of Northwest Airlines. It's the story of eight decades of history: from rickety planes delivering mail to one of the largest and most respected airlines in the world, from heroic pilots and primitive gear, all the way to D.B. Cooper and the Underwear Bomber.
