Описание: On July 1, 2012, flight instructors Meredith and Dana Holladay left the Washington, D.C. suburbs behind to see America from the cockpit of their 1938 Piper J-3 Cub. Packing little more than a few changes of clothes and a camera, the couple set out to celebrate their marriage and to encourage others to never give up when faced with lifes most difficult challenges. By the time they completed their trip on August 24, 2012, they had traveled more than 8,000 miles, landed in all 48 contiguous United States, and learned some news that would forever change their lives.
The Holladays are a testament to the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and thrive against all odds. As pilots, they know that the successful outcome of any flight depends almost entirely on their ability to maintain control of the airplane, to keep flying it, no matter what happens.
Fly The Airplane is more than just the title of the couples first book - it is a survival philosophy for all who endure pain and suffering, and a strategy for all who seek to live a rich and rewarding life.
Reviews:
Fly The Airplane is a very personal, honest and brave memoir. I love the way Meredith and Dana use aviation as a metaphor for life. It resonates with me and my own life experiences. And of course, the writing is excellent.
