Dancing with the Devil: Memoirs Of A Pilot

The title of this book was selected directly from a statement made to the author by a representative of the FAA during an informal inquiry into why the author was involved in so many engine failures and equipment malfunction incidents. One of the FAA representatives stated that in the preceding eight months, the author had been involved in more incidents (engine failures and in-flight equipment failures) than all the rest of the pilots in the Rocky Mountain region combined and thought that the author was "dancing with the devil" on a frequent basis, and he was concerned for the author's safety. The author thought that was a unique way of describing his experiences with various types of failures and selected that phrase for the title of the book.
