When the crew of a commercial airliner is suddenly incapacitated, a reluctant passenger with a wartime flying background is thrust into the cockpit, tasked with landing a plane he barely knows, carrying hundreds of lives that depend on his every decision. The novel chronicles a nail-biting countdown with relentless pacing, placing ordinary men and women under extraordinary pressure and exposing the razor-thin line between survival and catastrophe.\n\nRooted in the post-war anxiety of the jet age, Flight into Danger illustrates the era's twin fascinations: the miracle of modern aviation and its terrifying potential for disaster. Arthur Hailey — who would later cement his reputation with sweeping industrial novels like Airport and Hotel — co-wrote this early work with John Castle, and the hallmarks of his craft are already unmistakable: meticulous technical research, authentic procedural detail, and an instinct for human drama under duress. The result is a taut, propulsive thriller that launched one of fiction's most celebrated careers and leaves the reader gripping the armrest, wondering whether anyone on board will live to see the runway.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203181191387,"sku":"2026100009436-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d5a07e4f-cbf3-4b71-aee3-a8dbafbb6fd7.png?v=1788145062","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009436-secondhand-flight-into-danger","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
