Embark on a journey with Donald Osborn, a natural-born storyteller whose life unfolds like an exhilarating adventure across the globe.
Hailing from humble beginnings in western Nebraska, Osborn navigates the diverse landscapes of life, from small-town roots to the vast expanses of the world, collecting subjects and stories along the way. His career takes off from entry-level flight instructing to navigating the turbulent currents of the commercial airline industry.
Yet, Osborn’s story is far from conventional. He’s not just a pilot; he’s a real-life character, exploring outdated safety protocols in the airlines, encounters with A-list celebrities and U.S. Presidents, and occasionally transporting human organs.
Balancing his time in the sky, Osborn engages in entrepreneurial ventures, from flipping houses to tree trimming, all while lamenting the downfalls of a bumpy career.
"Where We Land" is not just a memoir; it’s a vivid journey woven with hard knocks, fortunate breaks, and a fair share of questionable decisions. Osborn’s candid storytelling invites readers into a world where resilience, humor, and unyielding spirit prevails.

It's been said that Donald Osborn has flown just about everything with wings except a pterodactyl. Don first flew at the tender age of 14 and continued to reach new heights throughout his career. His vast experiences flying for the big airlines, corporate jets, and private planes have earned him a reputation as a captain you want in your cockpit.Beyond the clouds, Don's creativity knows no bounds, as evidenced by his debut book, Where We Land: A Pilot's Reflections at Altitude. When he's not logging flight hours, his mind is as busy as the bustling tarmac at JFK Airport, composing songs, brainstorming story ideas, and plotting his next business venture.Born and raised in western Nebraska, Don now lives in eastern Nebraska, but he's seen the whole world in between. In his semi-retirement stage, Don intends to keep moving forward with his eyes on the horizon line for whatever possibility may come next.
Meet Anna Henkens Schmidt, an award-winning journalist-turned-homeschool mom-turned published author. Originally from the Pine Ridge of western Nebraska, Anna now calls North Carolina home. She is married to her highschool sweetheart, and together they have three children. Anna's journey from chasing stories as a seasoned journalist to orchestrating the chaos of homeschooling and raising her children has been nothing short of transformative. In between grammar and history lessons, she ventured into the realm of published authorship with her debut book, Where We Land: A Pilot's Reflections at Altitude, a captivating collaboration with her older brother, Donald Osborn.When she's not crafting compelling narratives or feeding her wanderlust through distant travels, Anna can be found indulging in her love for reading, experimenting in the kitchen as a wannabe chef, walking her dog, and embracing her passion for education.
