About the Author

Ace Abbott, born and raised on a farm in upstate New York, upon completion of college, entered the Air Force in 1965 and became an F-4 Phantom fighter pilot based in the Far East. In 1971 he began his civilian career as a Learjet charter pilot in South Florida where he flew celebrities, iconic sports stars, hyperwealthy Palm Beach socialites, and unsavory drug dealers. From 1980 until 2002 he was a Boeing 727 captain with several airlines during the unstable years of airline deregulation. A thirty-six-year aviation career took him to forty-four countries with twenty-five employers.
