Scotty and Lenny grew up in the same county, breathed the same New York air, and carry the same impossible dream: to one day fly a big aircraft across the open sky. But they never meet. Not as children. Not as students. Not even as young graduates stepping nervously into the professional world.

Life takes them to different states, different universities, different classrooms, and cockpits. But their paths, though separated by hundreds of miles, run in perfect parallel toward one inevitable collision point.
That collision point is Westchester County Airport.

That collision takes the form of a job listing. And that meeting, the first in a lifetime of parallel journeys, takes the form of a handshake that neither boy will ever forget.

The book is the setup for a series that will follow Scotty and Lenny through the exhilarating, challenging, and deeply human world of airport operations, where the real adventures are only just beginning.
