Friday, May 23, 2025
This is Google blog is to promote Jack & Helen Frye and their Sedona Smoke Trail Ranch and images of their lives. The narrative appears in the adjoining book "the Jack & Helen Frye Story - the Camelot Years of TWA" available on Amazon. Background on their lives: Let's start with Jack Frye, longtime president, and one of the original founders of TWA (1930). Trans World airlines and their success is due to one man, Jack Frye, anyone who tries to dispell this accomplishment is short-sighted. That said, TWA's Round-the-World launch is due to the Constellation Airliner 049 (the first model of this incredible airliner which enabled TWA to fly trans-atlantic). Jack Frye was at the forefront development this revolutionary transport, with Howard Hughes' financing. And no, Howard Hughes, although many give him all credit for the Constellation, did not design or implement it, this rests with Jack Frye (please see next post). As for Helen Varner Vanderbilt Frye, the novel cited gives a complete overview of her life from Clarksburg West Virginia to Sedona Arizona. What a journey to be sure.
