{"product_id":"mile-high-missionary-a-jungle-pilots-memoir","title":"Mile-High Missionary: A Jungle Pilot's Memoir","description":"What makes bush flying difficult?\nThe principle of lift works the same anywhere on the planet. But the bush provides neither training wheels nor guard rails. It may be beautiful, but make no mistake, it’s trying to kill you. Sane pilots don’t operate there. But pilots compelled by a higher call dare. They learn how to find their way across desolate deserts, jagged mountains, and inhospitable jungles. They master the art of throwing a couple of tons of aluminum at atrocious airstrips well enough so they can take off again.\n\nLearn how they do it.\n\nLearn why they do it.\n\nSit in the pilot’s seat as this missionary pilot flies you into the Amazon Jungle.\nSee what he saw. Hear what he heard as he wrestles a hostile environment to serve hidden people. Experience bush aviation firsthand as this pilot asks:\nIs my airplane safe to fly? Can I find one tiny scratch of an airstrip hidden in an immense jungle? What if the weather changes? Can I land and stay on the runway? Can I take off without hitting trees? Does my flying benefit the ex-headhunters I work with? Am I honoring God, or just playing with airplanes?\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0578425831\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0578425831.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Manley, James Rush\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
