"Derry Air" is the slap-stick story of a small town flying instructor who moves to a big-city airport. This is a normal career move for most pilots, but the city of Derry does not have a normal airport. Laugh with Garth Wallace as he stumbles from one misadventure to another at a flying operation named "Derry Air". Meet the airport linecrew, Huey, Duey and Louey, the viciously cheap flying school owner, Irving Mingy, and the wonderfully sarcastic ground school instructor, Dutch. Fly with the most odd-ball collection of student pilots ever assembled at one flying school. If you like to laugh, "Derry Air" will not disappoint you.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
"Derry Air" is Garth Wallace's fifth book and the third in a collection of funny flying stories starting with "Fly Yellow Side Up" and "Pie In The Sky". Other books by Garth Wallace: "Blue Collar Pilots", a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the real pilots in aviation, the straight-talking rednecks who dress badly and fly aircraft that don't fly themselves. "Don't Call Me a Legend" is a hard cover tribute to Charlie Vaughn, a modern day hero whose flying career is a living history of general aviation over the last 50 years.
From the Author
My initial plan had been to teach at Derry Air long enough to grab an Instrument Rating, build twin-engine flying time, bag a check-out in a high-performance airplane and escape to the airlines. I arrived believing Derry Air was a stepping stone. I left knowing that the important things in life were not money, position or career but what you're doing and who you're doing it with. As you read this book you will be sharing good times with funny people.
