Why don’t you ask the pilot?

January 17, 2006

I have flown so many times on business trips I can’t even remember them anymore. Flying is fun for me because of where I am usually going. I have also always enjoyed the actual flight, for the most part. Some flights have really turned me off. Right now I’m reading the book “Ask the Pilot” by Patrick Smith. I find this book annoyingly good. The reason why it is so annoying is because I had this idea for a book that was just like this.

I am always asking myself these questions on planes. Like functions of the airplane and certain airline processes. I even mapped out how my book would read. I went to the library the other day and looking for airplane books that might help my write my book, here was “My Book” already written, and better than I could have done it I might add. I’m not finished with it yet, but maybe I’ll ask Mr. Smith if I can write with him on his next project, using some ideas he might have missed. I recommend this read if you are the inquisitive type, and if the too technical of answers fly right by you. Patrick knew exactly who he was writing for.
