Synopsis You'll Never Make it by : Rod Hall-Jones

Rod Hall-Jones is a Te Anau-based author who has flown fixed-wing aeroplanes and helicopters since taking flying lessons at the age of 17. He has overcome more than a few hurdles to get to where he is today - including an examiner determined that he should not become an instructor, six engine failures, a wire strike, and a CAA medical branch restricting his medical. He sailed, flew, and ate his way through more than 20 countries during his six years flying as part of the Cousteau crew. Rod now lives in his beloved Fiordland and is lucky enough to still be flying and loving it, 50-plus years later. As the quintessential 'Southern Man', he enjoys nothing more than sharing the special beauty and history of Fiordland to inspire others to treasure and care for our national heritage as much as he does.

Synopsis Rescue Pilot by : John Funnell

The daring adventures of a New Zealand search and rescue pilot. 'Somewhere, up ahead, a person is bleeding, but you have to put that out of your mind. Your job is negotiating with time and space. You have your clock, that person has their own, and in the end, whether the rate at which your clock is clicking matches theirs is out of your control.' John Funnell is one of New Zealand's longest serving search and rescue pilots. Often referred to as a 'search and rescue daredevil', John has just retired after an incredible 49 years flying search and rescue helicopters. He is perhaps best-known for the 800-kilometre mission to save a scientist attacked by a shark on the remote sub-Antarctic Campbell Island, when he set off into the night knowing the distance was twice that of the helicopter's normal fuel range. Clocking an incredible 19,000 hours of flight time, John is a hero to hundreds of victims all over New Zealand. What's more, he's a natural-born story-teller, and his stories in Rescue Pilot are utterly gripping.

Synopsis Born to Fly by : Bill Reid

The thrilling and entertaining lives of New Zealand’s helicopter dynasty. Three generations of Reids have flown helicopters. It’s in their blood. First there was John, a World War Two fighter pilot. After the war he used helicopters for things no one dreamed possible, carrying out 300 rescue missions and training a generation of Kiwi pilots along the way. Next there was John’s son Bill, who began flying in the early 1970s, during the dangerous venison recovery and live capture years. Over the course of his 40-year career, Bill flew helicopters for almost every kind of job you can imagine, from mountain rescue to Hollywood location scouting. He’s since restored an Avro Anson Mk I reconnaissance bomber, used in World War Two and the only airworthy craft of its type left in the world. And finally there’s Toby and his wife Rachael, whose helicopter business continues the legacy of 60 trailblazing years in helicopter aviation. Adventure, enterprise and courage ... Born to Fly tells you how the Reids have it in bucketloads.
