A #1 AMAZON BESTSELLER!
A war on drugs. A continent of uncontrolled airspace. A squadron of trash-hauling cargo pilots caught in the middle.
Flying and aviation writing at its best! Based on Bleriot's experience as a counter-drug pilot in South America, The Jungle Express tells the story of the pilots and crews of the C-27 Spartan, a twin-engine cargo plane used to fly counterdrug support to remote jungle locations in the 1990s during the so-called War on Drugs.
From the runways of Panama to the dirt strips of Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Peru, the thrill and danger of flight come to life in a world with no radar, no air traffic controllers, and few airports. Bleriot excels at putting the reader in the cockpit - no flying experience required - as crews struggle to get people and cargo where they need to go, even when there's no runway at the end of the line.
"The best flying stories in 50 years... - Dave Schlener, former bush/commercial pilot
"Terrific story, well-written and entertaining! - Jerry Anderson, aviation artist and owner of Jerry Anderson Art
Fans of Dale Brown and Vince Flynn will love the military and aviation realism, while admirers of Ernest Gann, Richard Bach, and Antoine de Saint Exupery will soar in the studied appreciation of the flying world.
If you like adventure, exotic locations, and plenty of inside-baseball observations of pilot life, you'll love this laugh-out-loud aviation memoir from Michael Bleriot!
