- Default Title
Description
After "living the dream" flying all over the world in 707s and narrowly avoiding the nightmare of ending up in the Brisbane River in an Iroquois, what happens when life doesn't quite follow the path you're expecting? From Plastic Parrots to Flying Kangaroos - Book 2 continues the story of a young pilot who, looking forward to a return to his beloved Boeings, finds his plans disrupted spectacularly. Even worse, an unwanted "ground job" follows as war erupts in the Middle East. 1991 is also a horrendous year for RAAF flying accidents, and one that affects the young man deeply sees him return to 33 Squadron under the most tragic of circumstances. Having finally committed himself to a long-term RAAF career, the opportunity to join Qantas is suddenly revived. But should he pursue his dream, or continue on his upward military trajectory? Moving Up and Moving Out is a tale of unforeseen highs and lows: of laughs and loss, frustration and determination, rejection and redemption.
