‘I am still moved each time the earth falls away from the wheels…’
– OWEN ZUPP

The son of a decorated fighter pilot, Owen was born into aviation. His flying career has taken him from outback Australia to the rugged mountain ranges of New Guinea, the idyllic islands of Micronesia and across the oceans of the world to the United States, Europe, Africa and beyond.

Owen is an award-winning aviation writer, published author and airline captain with more than 20,000 hours of flight time, accumulated over a thirty-year career and many aircraft types, from biplanes to Boeings. He has shared the journey with readers around the world through his books and in a variety of publications. Owen also holds a Masters Degree in Aviation Management and has consulted on projects ranging from films to safety systems and technical manuals.

Whether witnessing rocket launches from 40,000 feet or circumnavigating Australia for charity in a tiny two-seat training aircraft, Owen has cherished every minute aloft.
