About the author
Dan Stratman
10 books34 followersDan Stratman is a retired major airline Captain with over 26 years of experience in the industry. Before flying for the airlines, he was a decorated Air Force pilot. In addition, Captain Stratman is a highly sought-after aviation consultant, media aviation spokesperson, and NASA Astronaut applicant. He is a World traveler, having been to 38 countries so far.
In his new novel, Dan takes the reader where no passenger is ever allowed to go – past the armored steel cockpit door and into the pilot seat – telling them what really goes on during an in-flight emergency. MAYDAY! takes the reader through a frightening scenario that has chilling resemblances to recent actual events.
Only an experienced airline pilot could bring such authenticity and frightening realism to this story.
The MAYDAY! story was originally written as a screenplay. After it did well in several large screenplay competitions, Dan thought it would be well-received by a wider audience and decided to convert it into a novel.
Dan has an entrepreneurial side that stretches back many years. He developed the popular air travel app, Airport Life. The app did something that was sorely needed, it made flying easier and less stressful for passengers. In addition, he created a specialty photo printing eCommerce website, ran a multi-expert aviation consulting company he founded, and has filed numerous patents. In his spare time Dan enjoys mentoring budding entrepreneurs and volunteering weekly with Habitat for Humanity.
The two things he is most proud of are his long marriage to his lovely wife and his three wonderful kids.
