Endorsements

"I have flown with missionary pilots across the globe. Everywhere, I have found them to be skilled professionals and also committed servants of our Lord Jesus Christ. A Vision with Wings outlines the history of missionary aviation and relates the exciting, true experiences of today's missionary pilots. This book will give you a fresh appreciation for individuals with a truly 'high calling.'"

Franklin Graham, President of Samaritan's Purse

 "A Vision with Wings tells, for the first time, the complete story of mission aviation. The history is there, and the unique role of Moody Aviation rightly holds a major place in this story. Mostly, A Vision with Wings tells the stories of people—those who have flown and raised their families in the mountains and jungles. This book will inspire those who contemplate a career in missionary aviation, those who support it, and those who want to know more about this noble endeavor."

John Testrake, Assistant to the President, Mission Aviation Fellowship; retired TWA captain and author of Triumph over Terror on Flight 847
