    Great story, the scariest part of it was 'it turned out to be about par for the rest of my career!'

    Great story, don’t need the cheesy music WHILE he is talking.

    I was expecting "so i break out at 800', and i look back and the bastard was right there with me."

    I bought and read Kerry's book after seeing his prior interview here. Fascinating and engaging read, with lots of nail-biting adventure! The Lord really watches over some pilots!

    This looks like it's going to be a great series but please lose the background score. It's very distracting. As a musician, I find myself concentrating more on the music than on what the talent is saying.

    That is insane! Like literally, my involuntary response at least twice during that story was an audible "are you insane?"

    Kerry's book is great. His story telling is even better!

    Great episode Dan, thank you. I love hearing the flying stories of seasoned pilots. There is a lot to learn from in their stories. 🤘🇺🇸🛩️

    As entertaining as the story is, I hope I never turn into the type of pilot his colleague is. Happy to sleep it out in an aircraft.

    Sounds like fun times......not! Very cool stories, just part the of "I am going to fly an airplane across the ocean" is amazing when nothing happens.

    Ferry Pilots. A breed apart! There seems to be warning for pilots to not become "test pilots" when that was not your mission. I suspect that a lot of Ferry Pilots may become "test Pilots" whether they want to or Not!

    Is it possible for you to post these on Rumble as well as on RUclips? I enjoy supporting your channel but RUclips not so much. Thanks

    I just finished “Ferry Pilot”. Full of a lot of situations that could have resulted in smoking holes in the ground or long time in foreign jails. A good read.

      Yes it is a good read.
