Writer Rinker Buck looks back more than 30 years to a summer when he and his brother, at ages 15 and 17 respectively, became the youngest duo to fly across America, from New Jersey to California. Having grown up in an aviation family, the two boys bought an old Piper Cub, restored it themselves, and set out on the grand journey. Buck is a great storyteller, and once you get airborne with the boys you find yourself absorbed in a story of adventure and family drama. And Flight of Passage is also an affecting look back to the summer of 1966, when the times seemed much less cynical and adventures much more enjoyable.

reviewed Flight of Passage on December 17, 2017 Flight of Passage
Sometimes you read a book of nonfiction that is as exciting as any thriller. This is such a book. Imagine flying from coast to coast of the United States in a single engine airplane with all the effects of weather, terrain, and pilot fatigue. Then imagine you did this at age 15 and 16 as Rinker Buck and his brother did. Even though, or maybe because, I'm a private pilot, some of the experiences they describe made me nervous. Their successful flight revealed their courage, skill, and youthful bravado. I recommend this book for anyone wanting to read a true adventure'safer than trying it yourself.
