This Way Up: The Tale of a Timid Nobody Who Became a Gyroplane Pilot
Author: Shirley Jennings
Publisher: BLKDOG Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
This is the story of a shy and unremarkable nobody who learned to be a gyroplane pilot and consequently discovered a wider world. Bored with the daily routine in the 1980s, a spur-of-the-moment decision to fly a light aircraft changed the entire course of my life. I had no intention of becoming a pilot—people like me don’t do things like that—but flying soon grew mundane, and the initial thrill wore thin. In an effort to recapture that lost spark of wonder, I tried a small helicopter and became captivated by the rotary-winged bug. My fate was sealed when, just a couple of months later, I saw Wing Commander Ken Wallis (the real James Bond) flying his famous gyroplane, Little Nellie. The addiction was incurable, and I was quite beyond help. However, gyroplanes have a bad reputation, and people tried hard to dissuade me. With so few gyronauts scattered across the UK in the pre-Internet 1990s, it felt like trying to join a secret society. The only available machines were single-seat, and the only way to learn to fly was to own one. No one said this was going to be easy! My quest led me to Cornwall, where a small group of autorotational veterans took me under their collective wing. Thanks to them, Delta-J was born, and they taught me how to stay alive, working from the ground up. Twenty years later, my rotary-winged obsession took this hesitant mouse across the English Channel, where I discovered the unimaginable freedom of the French ultralight world. My tiny rotorcraft and I are now part of that world. It has been a voyage of discovery and new horizons, with ups and downs in every sense—a journey I could never have imagined when I took that first aeroplane flight in 1985. Gyroplanes have been my greatest adventure!

Book Description
Take your front row seat as Steve Heard looks back at his "life lived all the way up," and shares seven decades of adventures and real-life accounts involving some of history's most influential decision-makers through one of the most rapidlychanging times in American history. Steve's story begins before his own birth, chronicling his family's roots, particularly his great-great-great grandfather, Colonel Stephen Heard. A soldier and a politician, Steve's namesake fought with George Washington in the French and Indian Wars and the Revolutionary War before becoming the first governor of Georgia. Steve's own account opens with his upbringing in Westwood, Massachusetts, his private education at Milton Academy in the 1950s, and his years of sports, friends, and academics at Harvard. Shortly after receiving his degree, Steve was quickly commissioned in the United States Air Force and served three years as an intelligence officer in Spain. While living on the civilian economy and making local connections, he participated in some of the Cold War's most challenging episodes, a number of which are still largely classified today. At the close of his eventful three-year tour, Steve became only the third American to fight bulls in Spain as a licensed matador, earning him a framed picture in one of Barcelona's oldest and best known restaurants, Los Caracoles, among some of Spain's most well-known, historical matadors. After his return to the United States in the 1960s, Steve attended Stanford Law School while working as a Santa Clara Deputy Sheriff. Steve then began five successful, eventful decades of practicing international law in several law firms--two of which he started. He investigated and litigated international transborder transactions, including smuggling and financial matters, cases that took him to the farthest reach of Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. All The Way Up also reveals Steve's philanthropic side, serving 20 years on the Board of the New York City Fresh Air Fund, the last 13 of which he was president. He also served several terms on Stanford Law School's Board of Visitors. Steve now enjoys his retirement with his wife, Susan, in Seabrook, South Carolina. Borrowing a line from Teddy Roosevelt, Steve's lifelong friend and Charleston neighbor, John Winthrop, likes to say, "Steve Heard is truly a classic 'man in the arena.'"
