Unforgettable flights

By Janice Wood · December 6, 2009 ·

Aviation author Lane Wallace has flown hundreds of interesting flights, and in her new book, “Unforgettable: My Best 10 Flights,” she describes her 10 best. From the Swiss Alps to Key West, from the U-2 to a Piper Cub, Wallace brings the reader with her as she recounts the details of each of these unforgettable flights.

“Few of us will have the adventures that Lane has had flying a blimp through the Swiss Alps,” says Sporty’s Vice President John Zimmerman. “But we all can identify with the pleasures of a particular flight and what makes it memorable.”

Wallace’s 10 best flights run the gamut from taking her parents flying for the first time to flying with an Alaskan bush pilot and landing on a frozen beach. An eight-page color photo insert chronicles many of the flights.

The 160-page soft cover book sells for $24.95 and is available exclusively from Sporty’s (800-SPORTYS or Sportys.com).
