About the Author

Frank Elliott s appreciation of Piedmont Airlines began during the 1970s when it was his airline of choice as a journalist based in Washington, D.C. A veteran writer for magazines, newspapers and television, he has written about a variety of topics, including health-care reform, naval affairs, landfills, amusement parks and North Carolina s mountains. For public television, he has written and produced documentaries about the quality movement in government, the Governor s School of North Carolina, the Yadkin River and Smith Reynolds Airport, where Piedmont was born. Elliott s familiarity with the airline increased while working on "Chasing the Clouds", the Winston-Salem, NC airport documentary, a project led him to write Piedmont: Flight of the Pacemaker.
