      I came fully awake as I sat up and cracked my head on the thwart of my upturned canoe. The pain cleared my head. I felt under my bedroll for my knife, hoping I hadn’t made enough noise to attract the attention of whatever—whoever?—had waked me. I did

      It’s a great plane, Edwina. Did your father really buy it for you? Christina asked.

      He did, I confirmed, taking off my headset to hear her more easily.

      I thought he freaked out when he found you were flying, Christine’s boyfriend, Ralph commented.

      Yeah. He never thought I would stick at it though. When I got my licence, I told him I could fly him to his meetings.

      Has he been up with you? Heidi asked from further back.

      Not in this – I’ve only had it a month – but I think I impressed him. He gave this to me for my birthday. He had it done up, checked, had new instruments put in and the outside painted in the company colours.

      You are lucky with your old man, Edwina. I can’t even get mine to buy me a car, Ralph growled in exasperation.

      You shouldn’t have totalled the Mercedes you had, I chuckled.

      Too right, Ralph agreed.

      I put my headset back on and checked our position. I was about to pass out of one air control area into another. After making contact with air control on the relevant frequency, I thanked them for their coverage and changed frequency to contact the next control area. In response to their questions, I gave our position, heading and altitude, and received confirmation that they had us on their screen.

      Being aware that a change was expected, I then queried the weather at Landsdown Airport, our destination.
