Capt. Mark Smith Series

Acclaimed as the modern-day version of Titanic, Mayday is a riveting Aviation Thriller with a new twist. Fasten your seat belt and raise your tray table, because the ride is about to get terrifying.

Ever wonder what really happens in the cockpit during a life-threatening emergency? Dan takes his listeners where no passenger is ever allowed to go–past the armored steel cockpit door and into the pilot seat–transporting them on a terrifying journey that has a chilling resemblance to recent actual events.

The Tech-Liner—appropriately christened the Spirit of Silicon Valley—is the most advanced airliner ever built. Its speed and luxurious amenities could usher in a new golden age of air travel. Struggling Alpha Airlines is betting its future on the new jet. On its maiden voyage—packed with VIPs from government, industry, and banking—this state-of-the-art plane is a prime target for attack. Capt. Mark Smith, Alpha Airlines Chief Pilot, will need to draw on all his decades of experience to make sure that never happens. At thirty-five thousand feet above the ocean, things spin wildly out of control. Smith will need a decidedly old-school strategy to save this high-tech marvel.
