Bob, I must say that this was a book that kept me captivated and intrigued. Every time I put it down, I began wondering what the next twist and turn of your adventure would be. I truly anticipated the next reading session. I believe this colorful account of your relentless pursuit, to free Juliet and bring her back home, is a testament to your dedication and perseverance to right the wrongs. The ability to acclimate and “speak the language of” the criminals you dealt with is an absolute credit to the “common horse sense” American way. No BS, no holds barred! You did what you had to do, and I respect that! I don’t believe that machines have souls, BUT if they did, you would be Juliet’s “knight in shining armor”! Thank you for a truly rewarding read.

Bobby,

I don't read a lot of novels, but when I started reading 464 Juliet I could not put the book down. I could not wait to read the next chapter. As I was reading it, I felt as if I were with you the whole time. You did a great job with this book and I definitely think this could be an awesome movie!

Bobby,

I got your book after buying a set of cams. It was awesome. Hard to put down. Hated to finish. It is amazing how you described the details of each day. I have to admit you are one tough hombre. The way you told the details of your emotions as Juliet took off and flew were incredible. I could hear her engines and feel the thrust. Then when she leveled off I could here the silence as she glided to freedom.

Terry, thanks for asking if I wanted to read it. It is better than any other books fiction or non fiction I've read. It would make a great movie.

What ever happened to 465 Juliet?

I just finished reading Learjet 464 Juliet. Once I started reading the story, I couldn't put the book down. It has been a long time since I have been able to find a book that will keep me interested in it long enough to finish and your story has done the trick. I think that it is a well told story that reads more like a drama than a nonfiction novel. Congratulations on your success in getting it out. I would be interested in hearing what happened to it after you got it home, what it took to get it fully repaired and where she is now.

The UPS man held up the package and pointed excitedly "Look there's an airplane on the box." UPS people don't get easily impressed by boxes but did by this one, containing the book Learjet 464Juliet . That was the first indication I was in for another ride with Bobby Wood. My mind drifted back 34 years and I told him "I flew that very plane one time, It was the greatest day of my life''. "Wow" he said as he took another look before returning to his deliveries.

As a flight instructor and charter pilot at Bobby Wood's Air Unlimited I knew I would enjoy the book (it was after the plane was recovered and restored I got to fly her). I was stunned after reading a few chapters. This book is so well written that anyone, not just pilots or aviation buffs will find it thrilling and spellbinding. Bobby Wood doesn't just tell a story, he takes you on a journey. As you read you'll feel like you've had the experience of going to save Learjet 464 Juliet with him. Unfortunately Air Unlimited didn't last long after Bobby Wood sold it but its legacy flies on. A good number of airline pilots flying today started their career when they walked in the door at Air Unlimited, Inc. to take their first flying lesson. This is one book you won't be able to put down till you've read the last word than I suspect you'll also say--Wow!

Absolutely one of the best novels I've ever read! Impossible to put down, I can't wait for the movie! Coming soon I hope?

Hi Bob,

I would like to thank you for sore eyes and losing a nights sleep. Oh, and also for the book. It was a pleasure to meet you at the V-twin expo. I was the air traffic controller you talked to for a minute. The book is exceptional, I am a book junky, and sometimes beta reader for a couple authors, I don't blow smoke up anybody ass as my dad always says. I wish I hadn't blown all my money in the bike business, I would try to find someway to invest in the Bobby Wood story. Truth is truly stranger than fiction, you can't make this shit up.There has to be movie in this! I will be investing in a few books. I never had the pleasure of flying a 24, but, I flew a 25 once, and a 35 a few times, I was bad about over speeding and making the stick shaker go off,lol, it can only leave me imagining what flying a modern fighter would be like. I looked up the call sign, and saw you now have a C182, I am guessing after all you went through, you had to have a place in your heart for the call sign. I was very curious as to what you ended up doing with the Lear, did you have to salvage it? Sell it? Charter it out? Anyway, great story, great book, congratulations.

What a intriguing story you have actually lived Bobby! First off, I was so caught up in knowing that all this is a true story. So much adventure! So many reasons to give up but it’s like, that is what made you push even harder. The manana syndrome would have definitely been the breaking point for most but, not Bobby Wood! I was truly on the edge of my seat thru the book and would love to see this as a movie! (with the right direction and actors of course) This ain’t no Lifetime movie LOL I’m so glad you were able to survive all the craziness and write about it! LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK!

Such an honor to get to know about your history.

See ya in the cinema hopefully soon!

Bobby:

Thanks so much for your book. Your excellent writing style captures the attention and transports the reader to the scene. I can’t imagine having to live through this experience. You display great fortitude and commitment to your goal, as well as a deep understanding of people and how to get things done.

Bob, Excellant riveting book. Haven't read a book in 15 years. Could not put down. Thanks for the hours of entertainment!

Hi Bobby, I absolutely loved your book. I couldn’t stop reading it. In fact,

I would like to buy a couple more for a couple of my friends. This would make a really good movie. It would keep people on the edges of their seats for sure.

I think everybody who has read this book will agree.

Bobby,

Just finished the book. The book was much better than I anticipated. I typically don’t make the commitment to read a full book, but I couldn’t stop (and didn’t want to) once I started reading. Thanks for sharing your incredible story.
