From flight line to page

Why an engineer writes about heroes

Peter’s career has run from the Space Shuttle’s hydrogen leak investigation to the flight lines of TWA and repair shops around the Pacific Rim. The Beyond Belief volumes are how that lifetime around aviators and service members gets paid forward — making sure the stories of uncommon valor stay in print.
