Captain Christiaan van Heijst shares his global adventures through a collection of short stories and striking photographs.

Each of the 67 short narratives, initially published on his social media channels and 5 never-before-published storiers, reveal the wonders of flying the Boeing 747 from the desolate beauty of the Alaskan wilderness to the secretive airspace over North Korea, and the adventures of flying in Africa.

Van Heijst's stories, highly popular on social media, are interwoven with thoughtful philosophical musings, offering readers an intimate look at the life of a 747 cargo pilot and the extraordinary world seen from the cockpit.

The book comes in two versions: the standard edition and an exclusive collectible Limited Edition version of exactly 747 prints only, each one hand-signed by the author.
