BRUCE THOMAS

I love to fly.  I have been a professional pilot for over forty years, but now it is time to settle down and put my feet on the ground.  That's how I got started in my new writing career.  I wrote the first part of "The Hope of the South", which is not a pro-slavery book in 2002.   Something I started and put down for fifteen years.  I picked it back up in 2017 when I could see my flying career winding down.  It was published in 2018, after many starts and stops.  I learned a lot while writing this first book in my Special Projects Unit Series, some good and some bad.  Writing is not an easy process.  Every day seems to get easier.

​

My 24 1/2 year US Air Force Career, certainly gave me lots of writing material.  Flying single-seat A-10 Warthog fighters in Bosnia, Iraq, Kuwait, Korea and Europe allowed me to see the interworkings of the industrial-military complex.  After my military career ended, I was allowed to fly for over twenty years with Southwest Airlines.  The last fourteen years as the Captain on the Boeing 737 aircraft.  I am now retiring, to watch my nine grandkids grow and to relax with my wife Vivian.

​

It's been a great ride.  I hope you enjoy the GETAWAY with my Special Projects Unit Series.  These Mystery/Thriller books are designed to give you a place to escape and relax.  Thrusters on Full!
