When 3 people board a small private plane at twilight, buckle their seatbelts for a flight from, Essex county, N.J. to Martha's Vineyard, Ma., a 200 mile flight, who knows what thoughts each one has going through their minds. After going through the rigors of the day, packing their clothes, and driving to the airport in a terrible traffic jam, it would seem relaxing just to take a deep breath, and sit down in a comfortable seat. Relaxing, except for the fact that everyone has some fear of flying and more conceivable, a fear of the unknown. We all wonder what went thru the minds of those on board, in THAT FINAL HOUR. Especially since the pilot, one of the 3 people on board was, J. F. K. Jr., son of the beloved John F. Kennedy, 35th President of the United States of America.This book attempts to illustrate what that final hour may have been like through recalling the exciting flying experiences of a less prominent private pilot , with some 20 plus years of flying experience. This book should answer many of your questions about what happened that tragic night.

Albert Pecker has been flying for more than 20 years, and has loved every knee knocking minute of it. Laid up after a leg injury, he decided to write about his most frightening flying mishaps, prompted by a friends questions about JFK Jr.'s fatal crash, in a plane like one he himself flew. Albert was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., 1931, in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, attended Stuyvesant High School in Manhattan, and went on to City College school of Engineering at Convent Ave and 137th St Manhattan (tuition $12.00/semester). Drafted into the U.S. army during the Korean War, he then worked as a structural engineer and builder in New Jersey.
