'There has never been a mid ocean ditching by an air carrier jet.' These are the words that haunt Captain Charlie Wells when he realizes that his jumbo jet has a problem over the Atlantic. None of the passengers or crew could know that a disgruntled airline mechanic has sentenced them to a night of terror. As the flight approaches the Equal Time Point and is the most distant from land, Captain Wells and his crew of pilots and flight attendants struggle to avoid making history. While airline personnel, the FAA, and the FBI try to solve the mystery of Tri Con Flight Eleven, a small U.S. Navy ship may be the only hope for the 208 souls on board. Ride along in the cockpit as this routine international flight becomes a nightmare that will require all the flight staff's training to survive. After reading Equal Time Point, frequent flyers and first-time passengers will find themselves studying the emergency procedure card in the seatback before their next flight.

About the Author:
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. My narrative is there to simply keep them in scene and herd them all toward a final conclusion." Harrison's second novel, SHADOW FLIGHT, will be published by BLUEWATER PRESS and is expected to be released by summer, 2011. He lives in his native Georgia with his wife, Diane.
