It’s perfect flying weather around Glossingham Airport, but Charlie is left on the apron all alone and Mr Little, his owner, is nowhere to be seen. After hours with nothing but his dreams to keep him company, Charlie is eventually taken up for a flight and, best of all, it’s to one of his favourite places.
The coastline comes into view and Green Island is seen on the horizon. There’s a rather large cloud in the way, but they just fly round it and nothing changes – until Charlie hears a cry for help. One of his best friends is lost in that cloud and can’t find her way out.
With help from the Control Tower, can Charlie and Mr Little help Meena and her pilot get back to the airport safely?
Angela Iremonger grew up in Frimley, a small village in the UK. Every two years she’d watch the breath-taking air displays swoop past the garden from the nearby Farnborough Air Show, so close that she could almost see the faces of the pilots who flew past. Concorde passing gracefully overhead was a frequent sight which she never grew tired of. A trip to Heathrow’s observation deck was an occasional treat. Although aeroplanes featured in her life, she never actually set foot in one until she went on a school trip to France at the age of 10.
Now settled in North Somerset, Angela regularly flies with her husband – an ex-commercial pilot – in a Piper Cherokee PA-28, a single-engine plane which really does seem to have a personality of its own. This little plane is the inspiration behind The World of Charlie Piper.
Angela also writes a blog about her travels with Charlie and other plane-related musings at
