Description
John H Evans' life has been marked by adventure and intrigue. Born in Wales, he grew up with asthma and found solace in flying, inspired by a childhood hero who went missing during the Second World War.
Evans' search for his childhood idol took him on a journey across North America, Europe, and the Caribbean, involving encounters with the Mafia, high-stakes entrepreneurship, and even a week-long flight with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. He has also had a hand in starting five UK airline operations and served as MD of a local airline in the Caribbean.
This memoir offers a unique glimpse into Evans' remarkable life, from his early days as a commercial airline pilot to his experiences in the world of high-stakes aviation and beyond. With its fast-paced narrative and fascinating stories, this book is an eventful and stimulating read.
