He shared his story in person for the first time on February 8. The event hap- pened on November 6, 2020. Here is how the story goes … On November 2, 2020, Nathaniel and his co-pilot were on the first leg of the delivery of a Pilatus PC 12 from California to Australia.

In what is truly a tribute to their superb flying skills, their landing in 5-10-foot seas was textbook; they were un- injured and the plane remained upright. All alone and with no ships in sight, they deployed the life raft, climbed in and activated the EPIRB.
