From the cockpit of a Boeing 737 to the sun-kissed shores of Kiribati, Lady MacGyver is a remarkable memoir of grit, courage, and sky-high ambition.
Michelle Huntingtons dreams of flight took root at the age of seven—and, against all odds, she became one of just 500 female airline captains worldwide.

Over two decades, she’s flown solo across vast oceans, landed on rugged outback strips, and even survived a lightning strike mid-flight.

Michelle’s journey through the aviation world is anything but conventional.

She navigates a turbulent path, side stepping naysayers and confronting systemic barriers.

Through it all, she proves that with MacGyver-style ingenuity—and maybe a touch of insanity—no challenge is insurmountable.

Told with sharp wit and unflinching candour, Lady MacGyver is packed with exhilarating adventures and powerful insights into resilience and resourcefulness.

Today, Michelle channels her experiences beyond the cockpit, speaking globally on neuroplasticity and mindset transformation, helping others face adversity and embrace change with clarity and conviction.

More than a memoir, Lady MacGyver is an inspiring tale of rising above limitations, and when the going gets tough, finding the strength to soar.

Reviews for Lady MacGyver: Unbelievable Stories with Altitude

""This is a book for the adventurers, the dreamers & those who don't let the tough stuff get in the way of success. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lady MacGyver is an honest, funny, and downright inspiring read. Michelle Huntington takes you on a wild ride through her life as one of the world's few female airline captains-from flying solo over oceans to standing up to the crusty 'old school pilot' boys' club. Her stories are packed with grit, heart, and plenty of creativity. It's not just about flying planes-it's about pushing through limits, staying strong in adverse situations, being curious, and backing yourself even when the odds are stacked. A great read for anyone who loves a good adventure and a strong dose of resilience."" Sara Pixley, Senior Relationship Manager, Westpac Bank ""This book hit me in the face. Stark realities, laughter, tears, anger and joy. If you think you're courageous, if you think you have integrity, can compartmentalise fear, stare down the overlord and take the one victory the world told you was never for you, read this. The tales of Lady MacGyver's passion, courage and unbridled determination to cope with life's cold hard realities are told with laugh-out-loud humour and unashamed honesty. Captain Huntington's story will no doubt set the dreams of young girls aloft but the real power in this book lies in the transformation it offers men."" Captain Matt Bowden
