Never Trust a Flying Squirrel (Standard Paperback Edition)
The Flying Explorers Series - Book 3

At Toad University, Tamias is no longer learning what flying is.

He is learning what flying demands.

Training intensifies as Tamias moves beyond basic aircraft control and into the real work of becoming a pilot: making decisions, managing risk, and staying ahead of the airplane when conditions are less than perfect.

Under the exacting instruction of Captain Corax, nothing is casual.
Every flight has a purpose.
Every mistake has a lesson.

Crosswinds push the airplane off course.
Night flying removes familiar visual references.
Runways appear only when called into existence.

And for the first time, Tamias must confront a truth that every pilot eventually learns:

Effort is not enough.

With guidance from Esquilo, the calm and perceptive senior student who first introduced him to the sky, Tamias begins to understand that flying is not about forcing outcomes-it is about recognizing when conditions are wrong, and having the discipline to act accordingly.

Because sometimes the correct decision is not to continue.

Sometimes the correct decision is to go around.

Crosswind landings: drift, crab, and alignment

Night flying and limited visual references

Pilot-controlled runway lighting

Aircraft differences (Cessna vs. Piper)

The importance of checklists and verified data

The mindset required to make safe, disciplined decisions

The Flying Explorers Series teaches real aviation concepts through story-combining authentic flight training with engaging characters and meaningful lessons about responsibility, judgment, and growth.

Each book builds on the last, following Tamias as he progresses from first flight to confident, capable pilot.

This is where flying stops feeling like discovery...

...and starts becoming responsibility.

Each volume of The Flying Explorers Series contains the story, uninterrupted, and rich, full appendices in the back that dive into the aviation concepts in the book more deeply.
A glossary of terms is also included.
