Recenzii

"With so many insights gained from a long career in aviation and a genuine ability to write captain Smith has written "the" go to book on air travel. " - Dave's Travel Corner

"Cockpit Confidential" offers a series of discussions and essays by Patrick Smith, a commercial airline pilot and travel writer...Smith covers all aspects of air travel, from airport security to airline identity...He provides answers to questions many of us have wondered about...He also offers words of encouragement to those who are terrified of flying.

Nearly every question I had about the aviation part of flying was answered in this book...A great, fun read for everyone who flies.

Patrick Smith thinks there's plenty he can tell us. And he's patient enough to guide us through it. Smith makes a terrific seatmate. The pilot can write.

Descriere

The world of air travel, often in the news, is fascinating but a little wacky. Patrick Smith has a particular talent for underscoring these features with irresistible wit and wisdom. In addition to his knowledge of all things aviation-related, Patrick shares his personal and sometimes surprising insights into geography and culture from his travels to over 70 countries. Cockpit Confidential is a completely revised edition of the 2004 Riverhead book ASK THE PILOT, with 50% entirely new material & another 30% or more revised, updated, and expanded material. New discussions cover a wider variety of topics with an emphasis on the most newsworthy: security, airfares, pilot training, as well as airline customer service issues. Also included are an informative air travel glossary and an index.
