WAXAHACHIE, Texas– William “Captain Billy” Moyle’s new novel, “ The Adventures of Tommy the Texan© and Captain Billy: Back to the Beginning ” (published by Archway Publishing), the first book in a planned series, illustrates the relationship between a pilot and his plane.
Tommy the Texan is an advanced training T-6 airplane who lives in an airport hangar in Danbury, Connecticut, and longs to fly again. When retired airplane pilot, Captain Billy, purchases him and begins rebuilding him, Tommy the Texan looks forward to Billy’s visits when he and his friends put on coffee and tell stories of great adventures in the big blue sky.
As a special connection builds between Tommy and Billy, the time arrives when Tommy is finally ready to fly. Not long after Billy climbs into the cockpit, starts Tommy’s engine, and taxis to the runway, man and machine soar to the sky where they begin making memories and Tommy finally has the chance to experience his own great adventures once again.
Moyle hopes his debut juvenile novel will both inspire and educate today’s youth in aviation and life.
