My memoir, Unlearning to Fly: Navigating the Turbulence and Bliss of Growing Up in the Sky, led up to the day I was hired as an airline pilot.

Silas Nixon Loved to Fly

Silas’ faded red Ford F-100 pickup truck made the turn. Almost every day he made the turn into the airport parking lot. You couldn’t pinpoint the exact time by his arrivals.
