Autorenporträt
James Casey's aviation journey began on the flightlines of the United States Air Force, where he enlisted and loaded bombs onto B-52s. Selected for a USAF scholarship, he graduated from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles in 1978 and returned to the skies, serving eight more years as a pilot flying the O-2, A-37, and F-15. After his military service, Casey spent 32 years flying for Delta Airlines, piloting every aircraft type in Delta's fleet and retiring as a captain on the Boeing 777. His passion for aviation continued after retirement, serving as an instructor, director of flight training, and chief pilot. As an accomplished author of several fiction and non-fiction works centered around aviation, James Casey brings the world of flight to life with authenticity, heart, and a deep respect for those who live and serve in the skies.
