FOREWORD BY CNN AVIATION CONTRIBUTOR KARLEEN PETITT.

NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK SIGNED BY AUTHOR

On two previous occasions, Captain Mike Simkins had informed the aviation authorities of lethal safety deficiencies that, if not fully addressed, would ultimately result in tragic consequences. On both occasions, his concerns were ignored. On both occasions, two separate, fatal, air crashes ensued.

Pulling Wings From Butterflies is the true story of his refusal to allow a third when he stood, alone, against the might of a multibillion-dollar airline and aviation establishment when he refused to compromise his passengers and crews safety in the pursuit of corporate greed.

The second book in the Pulling Winga From Butterflies trilogy TERCIO DE BANDERILLAS  exposes the relationship between the airlines, the pilot union BALPA and the Regulator, the CAA. This toxic and self-serving relationship is ultimately challenged when  Capt Simkins faced the entire Aviation Establishment at trial when he placed his entire future on the line. So how can an individual with zero legal training and no support possibly compete with an experienced legal team headed by one oth the UK’s leading barristers?
