Heidi's story is extraordinary. Imagine being 540 miles from land, with nothing but water in sight, and then experiencing every pilot's worst nightmare - a complete engine failure. Heidi's fixed-gear Cessna bounced off the ocean's surface, flipped onto its back, and began to sink. What followed was a nine-hour ordeal, battling 10-foot seas in a tiny life raft, with the shadow of the Cold War looming as she was finally rescued by a Soviet vessel. Her story is not only one of survival, but of aspirations realized, love found, and then lost, and how childhood trauma became of source of strength to be called upon. It is a harrowing tale of courage, resilience, and the enduring human spirit.

What a tale, to navigate across the Pacific using radio relay and dead reckoning would take skills and grit.

A true travel adventure.

I'm recommending to book club friends and those who like adventure.

A great read, very interesting and riveting book. Heidi does a great job telling her story of flying small aircraft across the Pacific Ocean.

I listened to it straight through without stopping, as I usually would with an audiobook. Couldn't put it down. What an impressive woman. It is nice to see a woman who works really hard, especially in a predominately male occupation, to achieve her goals. And it is quite a story to have an airplane engine quit flying over the Pacific Ocean. Wow. This is an inspiring story about an impressive lady..

A True Story That Makes a Great Audiobook

This was a great book to listen to. I really enjoyed the details Heidi went into about both her personal life as well as the technical aspects of being a ferry pilot over the ocean.

Fascinating true story
