Acerca de esta escucha
A riveting aviation thriller of suspense, longing, lies, and a pilot's ailing brain
Captain Robert "Mac" Frank is a seasoned pilot whose life is centered around being in the captain seat of a wide body airliner. Living out of a suitcase has left him isolated. A lifetime of dishonesty has left him empty and alone. His career has filled many voids, but when health puts his license in jeopardy, he discovers he will risk everything to claw for control of his crumbling life.
While alone in the cockpit above the Pacific Ocean, his condition progresses, triggering chaos and ruin. Julie, his young female copilot and former student, is called to save hundreds aboard. Faced with an investigation and certain criminal charges, Mac has to decide what his life has meant and if it is still worth fighting for.

I’m a cargo pilot. In the industry, I’m known as a “Freight Dog.” I fly canceled checks and other types of high-value cargo around the country, mostly at night, in airplanes that are older than I am. Flying freight - or “work” as we call it - in small, twin-engine aircraft is a lesser known side of the aviation world. Our day starts when banker’s hours end. Thousands of flights move millions of pounds of work from city to city every night while the rest of the country is asleep.

An underpaid, overworked certified flight instructor cheats death while attempting to teach a cast of incompetent student pilots to fly at a skeezy South Florida flight school; all in the quest to build flight time so he can get a “real job” at an airline. The planes break, the regs break, metal gets bent, students are lost at sea, and a Top Gun wannabe student, who has 400 hours of flight instruction, still hasn’t made his first solo flight.

North Korea's deadliest weapon is sleeper agent Song Sun Young. Married with children and living the good life in New York City, she has waited seven years to activate the mission she was trained to do: infiltrate America's financial infrastructure. She prays the call from her handlers will never come, because she loves her husband and kids and affluent New York lifestyle. But the call does come. During volatile negotiations between the White House and Pyongyang, Song is hurled back into a reality she had hoped to leave behind forever.

On a foggy summer night, 11 people - 10 privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter - depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: The plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are the painter Scott Burroughs and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family. Was it by chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something more sinister at work?

On a cold spring night in 1952, a huge meteorite fell to earth and obliterated much of the East Coast of the US, including Washington, DC. The ensuing climate cataclysm will soon render the Earth inhospitable for humanity, as the last such meteorite did for the dinosaurs. This looming threat calls for a radically accelerated effort to colonize space and requires a much-larger share of humanity to take part in the process. Elma York’s drive to become the first lady astronaut is so strong that even the most dearly held conventions of society may not stand a chance against her.

1941. Audrey Coltrane has always wanted to fly. It's why she implored her father to teach her at the little airfield back home in Texas. It’s why she signed up to train military pilots in Hawaii when the war in Europe began. And it’s why she insists she is not interested in any dream-derailing romantic involvements, even with the disarming Lieutenant James Hart, who fast becomes a friend as treasured as the women with whom she flies. Then one fateful day, she gets caught in the air over Pearl Harbor just as the bombs begin to fall, and suddenly, nowhere feels safe.

Couldn't Stop Listening
Wings of Deceit is a story of an airline pilot struggling with the idea of losing his livelihood over his integrity. A story much like those seen in the industry every day. The book pulls the reader in to follow along through the life of the pilot to allow the reader a full understanding of the importance of a proper medical exam, and how likely it is that pilots feel compelled to show their best self during their regular physicals. It is obvious the author did significant research, and he provides quite a bit of facts throughout the book. The aviation details were spot on.
As a pilot, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book, and found myself laughing, tearing up, and shocked throughout. Great read! I look forward to more books written by William Hoffman.

A heartbreaking aviation story
A quick listen and good story. The author takes on a lifelong journey. Although the story is straight forward, that doesn't take away from a compelling ending.
My only complaint was the infection used by the reader at the end of chapters didn't always match the tone of the scene. As if he was caught off guard by the sentence ending.
Overall a fun listen. I have a weak stomach and there was a moment or two that wasn't suites for car listening for me and I had to wait till I was home. 7.5/10.

Fantastic Thought Provoking Book
A book examining the tragedy of a pilot’s life as he tries to navigate the FAA medical examiner/monitoring process while holding on to his career. Though he continues his career for a time maintaining many lies of his own ultimately to meet in tragedy, one ends the book wondering if the real wings of deceit are the medical regulatory actions the FAA uses to keep the skies safe.
Entertaining, heart touching and thought provoking. Well worth the read.
