Abstract

Using the qualitative research method of Content Analysis, a comprehensive exploration was conducted into three acclaimed works of aviation literature: Wind, Sand and Stars, by Antoine de Saint-Exupery; West with the Night, by Beryl Markham; and Fate is the Hunter, by Ernest K. Gann. Using the precise elements of the methodology, codes were identified, categories were combined and emerging themes were discovered. These discoveries led to a greater understanding of the works and their contribution to the knowledge base of aviation.
