Description
Enthralling tales from New Zealand pilots—both men and women—who fly a variety of aircraft around the world in a range of situations, from the domestic to the heart-stopping.
Aviation safety expert and keen pilot Fletcher McKenzie has interviewed 23 Kiwi pilots who have worked around the world and are record-breakers of different kinds. Put yourself in the pilot seat and experience the intense thrills, the pleasures, and the near misses of lifetimes spent in the air!
The pilots represent a range of flying eras, aircraft, and experiences—from the Second World War to the present day, from one of the original Dambusters to flying Richard Branson's private jet. Stories involve gliders, fighter jets, private aircraft, top-dressing planes, helicopters, and many military aircraft, including the famous F-18 from Top Gun.
