Product Description:
Fourteen-year-old Jay Cooper is enjoying the view from his Uncle Rex’s Cessna when a low-flying 757 speeds past them. Caught in its wind turbulence, their small plane is shaken violently, knocking Rex unconscious and leaving Jay blind from a head injury.
With fuel running out fast, Jay drifting in and out of consciousness, and the plane heading straight for a mountain range, this high-flying adventure shows the importance of faith as Jay faces numerous unseen dangers.
Customer Reviews
Like the other titles in this series better. by String Sleights
I just did not like the way this one begins. In fact, I haven’t yet finished the book because of the weak beginning. Don’t know if I ever will. However, I strongly recommend the Legend of Annie Murphy and other titles in this series. (see my review for the aforementioned title)
Not as exciting of a plot as the others, but still great by Dave
It’s Frank Peretti’s brilliant novel writing skills…condensed! It’s a super-cool family of archeologists–minus a mother–who investigate phenomena in the spirit of Indiana Jones, only with a Christian perspective. A nice alternative to the gore and junk in the Indiana Jones movies.
Flying Blind isn’t as exciting or as spectacular of a plot as some of the others, but still will keep you on the edge of your seat. Jay Cooper has been struck blind on board his uncle’s plane due to airplane turbulence. Now, with the help of ground crew, family, friends, and relatives he must attempt to keep his unconscious uncle alive and land safely…all while he is Flying Blind.
This book appears to be the last of the Cooper kids adventure series, sadly. It’s not as grand as some of the other novels, like I said, but it’s still worth reading.
For the parents: A pretty tame book, compared to the others. Jay gets whacked on the head and bleeds a little. That’s it.

This one keeps you on the edge of your seat. Jay Cooper and his uncle were having a fun flight on his uncle’s plane, when a larger plane knocked them terribly. Jay becomes blind, and his uncle is knocked unconscious. Jay must now atempt to land the plane without eyesight. He gets help, though, over the radio, from a friend, an airport trafic controler, and finally his father. His family down on the ground tries to think of a successful way for him to land the plane. But it may cost his uncle his life. Can Jay land the plane successfully without injuring himself or his uncle? This book grabs your attention, and keeps it!

FLYING BLIND
I really enjoyed reading this book because it was very suspenseful. It was full of excitement, it made you not want to stop reading the book or even put it down. It was like being inside a movie acting it out as you read on. I believe everyone should have the Frank Peretti collection in their home. If it is your first time reading a book you should start on this book. If you like a book full of action and danger this is the book you should be reading. It takes place on a little two-passenger plane that belongs to jay’s uncle. They both were having fun until a huge passenger plane had blown its engine. The force of the turbulence under the plane forced jay’s plane out of control and knocking them both unconscious.
