Synopsis

If you\'re going to ferry small single-engine aircraft over the North Atlantic for a living being a good pilot isn\'t enough, you have to be lucky too. Kerry McCauley is both. In his 30 year career as an international ferry pilot Kerry has battled fuel system malfunctions over the Atlantic, a total electrical failure at night over the Sahara, being struck by lightning off the coast of Portugal and losing his engine in a thunderstorm. Kerry\'s almost insatiable, reckless quest for danger and adventure also led Kerry to put international smuggler and bank robber on his resume. Kerry found the answer to the question \"What could possibly go wrong?\" time and time again. But his skill, ingenuity and a heavy dose of luck were what allowed him to survive the countless mishaps, catastrophes and a nearly fatal plane crash. This harrowing account will have you on the edge of your seat wondering how Kerry is still alive. Ferry Pilot is destined to be a true aviation classic.
