With over 20,000 flying hours Robert Fulton takes you "Up in the Air" in a series of ten chapters that detail stories produced by a wide variety of fixed wing and helicopter missions that on occasion rise to the level of breathtaking terror as well as the luxury of immense relief. In a career spanning almost fifty years Fulton dives into the riddles of fate in the air, into life's struggle to survive no matter what--finding a way, risking life and limb to achieve a goal, taking calculated risks to overcome an obstacle that blocks your progress. Lessons applicable to life and living are parelled by the author through lessons in flight where the elements and fate's cruelest outcomes are presented as experiences to learn from.
"Up in the Air, a pilot's journey" will have you galloping from page to page to find out how the story ended or what is next, but it will also give you the feelings of the author as he steers in hopeful directions for a favorable outcome for patients, passengers, and fellow pilots who deserve success and to be shielded from fate at its worst.
