Mayday

Mayday

Jessica “Jessie” Holbrook and her father, Adam, are flying to a favorite vacation spot in Bermuda in her father’s Cessna for spring break. During a rouge storm, Jessie’s father bangs his head and sees double. Jessie will have to fly the plane and safely land if and when they see an airport.

Jessie spots land, but it doesn’t look like Bermuda. Have they blown off course to someplace in Central America or Mexico? Jessie thinks they have traveled back through a time warp and find themselves back in Mayan times without knowing how they got there!

The clock is ticking for them to leave and get home, but they need fuel, and with the language barrier, it’s hard to convey their needs to the inhabitants of this island. They enlist the help of a WWiII pilot.

There is no compass to show the way back from time travel! Their situation seems all but hopeless. Or is it?

However, during a violent, unexpected storm, Jessie’s dad bangs his head and she must take over the plane. She must fly and land safely. Jessie finally spots land, but she is not sure where it is. Where were they blown off course?
