From Hero to Zero - Rod Lovell
From Hero to Zero is the incredible, true story of Captain Rod Lovell’s unbelievable castigation for doing the very thing he was paid to do – keep his passengers safe.
From Hero to Zero is the remarkable true story of how Captain Rod Lovell saved the lives of all on board South Pacific Airmotive’s DC-3 VH-EDC flight to Norfolk Island. On 24 April 1994, just seconds after taking off from Sydney Airport, Captain Lovell was left with 46 seconds to take action over an unflyable aircraft after both engines failed. He ascertained that the safest alternative was a forced ditching into Botany Bay. It was a hero’s decision, although it ultimately destroyed his aviation career.
From Hero to Zero is the whistleblowing book detailing the inadequate investigation and ultimate cover-up by the aviation authorities. The outcome financially and emotionally crushed Captain Lovell, who had exhausted his personal funds in his attempt to defend his actions and prove that the aircraft should have been deemed a safety risk.

Rod’s endorsement of Jacqx’s writing mentoring and editing services:
"As a “newbie” to writing, I searched the ‘net and thankfully found Jacqui. She has helped me, encouraged me, guided me, advised me and together we have (in my opinion) collaborated to produce an outstanding book. I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending her skills and talents."

The book was transformed under her guidance and I was grateful for the clear-sighted direction which she imparted with logical and also creative reasoning.
