Does anyone know the title of this book?

I’m looking for a book I read years ago. A boy gets into a fight with his father and decides to go on a plane with a man that works for his father to deliver a shipment to the cold wilderness. The plane crashes and there are two men that try to harm the boy. They are trappers or something similar. The boy meets Donovan and he becomes a type of mentor, teaching him survival skills and keeping him safe. In the end, Donovan doesn’t make it, but the boy makes it home. I know the details are dodgy, but I can’t remember much else.
And no, it isn’t Hatchet or My Side of the Mountain.

perihelion and aphelion distances to cause a collision?

A planet and an asteroid both orbit in the ecliptic plane. What conditions must be met for the aphelion and perihelion of the bodies in order for an impact to occur?

30,000 feet in the air in a plane that is about to crash what do you put your faith?

Regarding your chances of survival. Solely on man or solely on your God of choice? Why? How confident or you in the skills of the pilot and the craftsmanship of the plane? How confident are you in God? Can man disappoint you, can God disappoint you?
I think “choice” should be “choose”
Why would someone blame the 187 victims on God and not the failure of the plane and the pilots. For you shouldn’t having 3 survive be a fluck, with 3 it certainly cannot be the safety standards of the plane.

Regardless of the skills of the best well seasoned pilots and the best plane they can’t get out of all situations.

What is your survival skill?

Have you ever jumped off a mountain? Fallen from a burning plane? Shoot an arrow at a killer bear? Whatever you did you had some way of saving yourself or someone else. I have a list of possible scenarios to which you will have to answer to get ten points. Answer them right at one time.

1. A fire breaks out in the movie theater. Someone tries to keep everyone calm when all of a sudden the people start to run in a rampage out the door. You realize that you are very short and are sure to be pushed down. How should you save yourself from being trampled?

2. You are lost on a deserted rode in Texas when you hear a deadly sound. Before you can move you feel the rattler’s fangs reach into your leg. You slowly begin to panic. How do you save yourself from being poisoned and get yourself to the next town?

3. Some friends ask you to go camping with them to have some fun and you agree to come. You’re the normal funny man anyway. As the night slows down and people go to there tents you hear the howl of wolves. You never used a gun before and you never were afraid until now that you might have to use one. Suddenly out of the corner of your eye you see a pair of golden eyes. A low growl eminates from deep within the wolfs throat. You jump to your feet. What do you do to save yourself and friends from a lone wolf?

4. One night you come home and realize someone has broken into your house. You have either had this happen or not either way you hear foot steps above your head. You know that if you are too loud the person will hear you and you would rather stay “gone”. Then you hear the footsteps coming down the stairs. All you have ever had as a weapon was sport equipment. What do you do now?

5. A loose wild hog just ran into the middle of the road and is looking very miffed at your car being in its territory. The animal is the size of an over grown horse and his tusks are sharpened to the finest points. You have heard of a man getting pulverized in a nearby county by this exact hog. You know this because the other hog was never found and killed. You like your car but you love your life more. The hog doesn’t seem to be backing down but rather getting ready to destroy your car like a tank. How do you survive?

6. You are at a pool party when you hear a blonde come running onto the scene. You recognize her as your best friends lover. The blonde grabs a radio and starts to jam. You don’trealize the danger until the question, “Can you hear this underwater?” is heard. Everyone screams because you are the only one left in the pool. What do you do?

Please answer hos you would really get out with your life. There is also one more thing. You have no means of communication anywhere. Just have fun with it. Forget about answering them for points. Just answer them for fun. Someone will still get points. If you want to have a contest I have another question.

Just for fun!
Nice song. I have to say though that it doesn’t answer anything. Have good day Mr. Troll.
I don’t have that much time. I’m just bored right now. I actually finished all my chores. Well I actually just like reading about people who are kinda writing to me. I live a very sheltered life.
