Description
After this country's darkest day, can Tris Miles fly her way home?
Never forget...
In September 2001, Tris Miles faces difficult choices. As Chief Pilot of Westin Charter Company, she's mentoring Jannat, a brash young captain with limitless potential and a shocking secret. An offer to summit the peak of the pilot pyramid entices Tris to quit her job, but an old nemesis stands in her way.
Meanwhile, Tris juggles the men in her personal life. A friend-with-benefits pushes for commitment. An ex-boyfriend returns, still in love with her. Unexpectedly, Tris develops new feelings for someone who is already dear to her.
On September 11th, Tris and her crew depart Edinburgh for the United States. Just feet off the ground, they are mysteriously ordered back to the airport where they learn of a deadly terrorist attack on U.S. soil-using airplanes as bombs.
When Tris discovers that her best friend was a passenger on one of the planes that crashed into the World Trade Center, her world is shattered.
With a broken heart and her entire life up in the air, Tris doesn't know where to turn. Can she find the courage to navigate her way home?
Advance Praise
Flying Home by R. D. Kardon is a gripping story, haunted by echoes of the past and overlaid with a sense of foreboding as the clock ticks down to one of the darkest days in the nation's history. Kardon brings the reader inside the mind of an accomplished pilot as she struggles to make the toughest decisions of her professional and personal lives.

R. D. Kardon had me hooked from the opening chapter. Flying Home is filled with a rich storyline and compelling character arcs that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
- Dennis K. Crosby, author of Death's Legacy and Death's Debt
Flying Home is the first book I've read using the corporate flight world's perceptions of the 9/11 experience and it was gut-wrenching. Kudos to R. D. Kardon. The situations that Kardon creates for the corporate flight world are tremendously realistic, not sugar-coated or overly dramatic-simply real. I don't want this series to end.

I loved reading Flying Home. R.D. Kardon captures the drama, action, and joy of flying as only a professional pilot can. I can't wait for her next book!
- Col. Julie Tizard, USAFR (ret.), author of The Road to Wings and Free Fall at Angel Creek
Spellbinding! R. D. Kardon had me hooked on page one of FLYING HOME, the third book in The FLYGIRL Trilogy. I was captured in a gripping, methodically woven story web, a turbulent ride centered around compelling characters, where everything changes on one fateful day. A real page turner: I couldn't put it down.
- David W. Reed, author of Uphill And Into The Wind
R. D. Kardon has done it again. With riveting storytelling, Flying Home takes us on a journey filled with unexpected twists and turns. Enjoy the continuing story of Tris Miles as we find her in precarious and unsettling situations that only she can navigate. Five Stars once again for R. D. Kardon
- Laura L. Engel, author of You'll Forget This Ever Happened
Flying Home brings us back to the joy and anguish of Tris Miles' journey as a pilot and a person. It introduces us to new players in her life and old flames who won't die. Tris' determination inspires me and drives this heart-rending story forward. Flying Home delivers.
