""The altimeter spins backwards in a blur, like a mad scientist's time travel clock."" True tales from 30,000 feet Life is an adventure; life in the sky, exponentially so. And Airline Pilot-Author-Blogger Eric "Cap'n Aux" Auxier has done it all. For the first time, enjoy a collection of Captain Auxier's stories from such publications as Airways magazine, Plane & Pilot, NYCAviation.com and his own blog (capnaux.com). Also included are several unpublished works, guest stories from fellow pilot-authors and other gems. From his first moment leaving earth in a hang glider as a daring (make that foolish) young teen, to his scud running escapades as a young bush pilot in Alaska; from dodging hurricanes in the Caribbean to an explosive decompression in an airliner, Captain Auxier chronicles a life in the sky few can only dream of. With over 20,000 flight hours, Eric Auxier is a Captain for a major U.S. airline and the author of "The Last Bush Pilots," an Amazon Top 100 Breakthrough Novel. He is a regular contributor to Airways Magazine and NYCAviation.com. Mr. Auxier blogs at capnaux.com.
