What Does Seven Decades As A Professional Pilot Look Like?

More than 35,000 flight hours. Nearly two million passengers carried safely around the world. From a yellow Piper J-3 Cub to the Boeing 747, Captain John E. Kaylor experienced an aviation career unlike any other.

But the numbers only begin the story.

Inside these pages, you'll fly into some of the world's most fascinating—and sometimes dangerous—places.

You'll experience tense moments over Syria and the Middle East, witness civil unrest in Sri Lanka, and discover what it was like to fly internationally during an era when political unrest could change a flight in an instant.

You'll sit in the left seat as one of Hollywood's most recognizable power couples, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, entrust their lives to John's hands while traveling around the world as their Chief Pilot for fourteen incredible years.

You'll relive the drama of 9/11 through the eyes of an airline captain, experience demanding instrument approaches in adverse and extreme weather conditions, and follow the remarkable journey of a man whose faith guided him through every season of life.

Most of all, you'll meet a husband devoted to his wife, Jacque, a father determined to provide for his family, and a pilot whose greatest goal was simple:

Bring everyone home safely. Every single flight.

The Captain's Logbook is more than an aviation memoir. It is a story of faith, family, courage, humility, and a lifetime spent above the clouds.
