“Pilot of Fortune,” the first book in an aviation trilogy from Ted Beaudoin, author and media services manager for the AEA 2005 Inc. non-profit group, in Welland, Ontario, Canada, is now available at Trafford.com, as well as Amazon, Walmart, Barnes and Nobles and other book stores throughout North America.

The book, which sells for $18.99 soft-cover and $28.99 hardcover, is an illustrated biography of Sheldon Luck, the first chief pilot of Canadian Pacific Air Lines.

Beaudoin, who is now working on the final manuscripts for his next two books in the trilogy, is donating 43% of his combined royalties from these books to AEA 2005 Inc. as it prepares to permanently house the Welland Silver Dart replica in a suitable museum in the spring of 2010 in Toronto.
