"A thrilling ride delving into the awesome responsibility of command, and how it is what makes the difference between safety and tragedy."—Captain "Sully" Sullenberger, Pilot of US Airways 1549, "Miracle on the Hudson." Synopsis: When former fighter pilot Paul Allison is hired by start-up airline AST, he expects to fly with the same professionals as he did in the military. But things are not the same at AST—some captains are good, others not. One day, he is paired with Captain Donald Kallstadt on a trip with the promise of easy flying and pleasant layovers. But the trip turns into a nightmare, a series of near-disasters that climaxes in a life-and-death situation at the Washington National Airport. Allison can either mutiny or die, taking 132 passengers and crew into the Potomac River with him. His decision leads to a riveting courtroom drama that focuses public attention on ethical questions that have never been more pertinent to our nation than today.
