Author Harrison Jones writes aviation fiction based on personal experience. Before becoming an airline pilot, his forty year career included stints as an aircraft mechanic, a pilot ground school instructor and a flight instructor. He recently retired as an international captain with more than 20,000 hours in the cockpit and extensive flying throughout Europe, Asia, South America and the Middle East. His writing features realism and plausibility that is uncommon in aviation novels. His method has been described as separating fiction from fantasy by developing plot that is not only possible but indeed probable. Harrison says, "My career has blessed me with an endless supply of colorful characters and I allow them to dialogue freely. The narrative is there to simply keep them in scene and herd them all toward a final conclusion." Harrison is currently editing the manuscript for his second novel. He lives in his native Georgia with his wife, Diane.
