FORTY YEARS THROTTLE TO BOTTLE, The Somewhat Believable Life Story of Wee Jackie McNeill, is the true biography of Jack NcNeill, a larger-than-life-individual, who soared upward through the ranks, and his aviation career culminated with a perfectly-times Citation aircraft flyover at Expo 86!

Forty Years Throttle to Bottle, is described as “a light-hearted look at the latter half of twentieth century Canada with the Cold War DEW Line, the rise of PWA and the heyday of British Columbia Air Services and the Social Credit party,” the book divulges some of all-around Canadian Jack McNeill’s most interesting adventures as a young man working in the Alberta oilfields in 1947, his subsequent career flying with Pacific Western Airlines, and the surprising highlights of his years in the air, including a flight with the Royals and time under politician Phil Gaglardi, better known to British Columbians as “Flying Phil.”
