    Kevin Sullivan

    Captain Kevin 'Sully' Sullivan has made flying his passion and his life for the past 40 years. He graduated in 1977 from the University of Colorado with a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering and earned his FAA Private Pilot Licence there before pursuing a career in the United States Navy. Designated a Naval Aviator in 1978, he was transferred to Naval Air Station Miramar (Fightertown) to fly the F-14 Tomcat in 1980. He was deployed to the Indian Ocean onboard USS America and USS Enterprise while assigned to Fighter Squadron 114 (VF-114 Fighting Aardvarks), and was chosen to attend the Navy Fighter Weapons School (TOP GUN). In 1983 he was selected as the first US Navy Exchange Pilot to the Royal Australian Air Force, in the role of a Fighter Combat Instructor flying the Mirage 3. He joined QANTAS Airways in 1986 and flew the Boeing 747 and 767 before transitioning to the Airbus A330 in 2004. As Captain of Qantas Flight 72 (QF72) between Singapore and Perth, WA, on 7 October 2008, he narrowly averted a horrific air disaster when a fault in the plane's automation caused the plane to suddenly nosedive, not once but twice. He was medically retired in 2016.

      CHAPTER ONE

      Today was not a typical school day in Avonlea. Hetty stood at the front of the classroom. She was holding a big blue ribbon. She beamed down at Gilbert. Gilbert, you’ve done a wonderful job, she said.

      Most of the students were smiling. They were excited for Gilbert. Anne was not so happy, though. She frowned and slumped down in her desk. She crossed her arms over her chest in a huff.

      Congratulations on winning the term’s Top Student Award for outstanding academic achievement, said Hetty.

      Her last words were hard to hear, for they were drown out by the cheering of the class.

      Gilbert looked around at his friends. He puffed out his chest and smiled.

      Hetty waited for the class to settle down before she continued. Second place goes to Anne Shirley. A few people clapped. Hetty walked over to Anne’s desk. She handed Anne a small, twirling propeller toy, with an elastic band launcher. Anne receives a delightful whirligig, said Hetty.

      Anne forced a smile through gritted teeth. She took the whirligig. Then she slumped lower into her desk, sulking.
