Tarmacs & Tantrums - My true story... (Paperback)

The year is 2006, and post 9-11, the world has changed. Security is on high alert and flying through foreign airspace in a single engine aircraft is not to be undertaken lightly, particularly in the Middle East. But Julie's husband assures her that flying his newly purchased 'little beauty' 27,000 kilometres from Denmark back home to Brisbane, Australia will give them an 'adventure of a life time' she will never forget. Blissfully unaware of the life changing and often life threatening events to come, Julie boards a commercial flight to Europe. Written with honesty and humour, Julie will engage you with her very personal account of this international flying odyssey. 18 countries in 33 days certainly tested her courage, endurance and her Australian Spirit to the absolute limit, many times over..... Follow this Aussie husband and wife team as they face high drama events in the air and on the ground, yet still retaining the mundane, sometimes volatile, and often fragile dynamics of a married couple. Meeting famous Australian adventurer Dick Smith, who was in awe that they survived the trip, cemented her resolve to write this book. This is a true adventure, with some misadventure thrown in, a tale somewhere between 'The Castle' and 'Indiana Jones'. Except Julie's story is not fiction. As the saying goes, fact is often stranger than fiction
