For
millions of people, travel by air is a confounding, uncomfortable, and even
fearful experience. Patrick Smith, airline pilot and author of the web's
popular Ask the Pilot feature, separates the fact from fallacy and tells you everything
you need to know...
•How
planes fly, and a revealing look at the men and women who fly them
•Straight
talk on turbulence, pilot training, and safety
•The real
story on congestion, delays, and the dysfunction of the modern airport
•The myths
and misconceptions of cabin air and cockpit automation
•Terrorism
in perspective, and a provocative look at security
•Airfares,
seating woes, and the pitfalls of airline customer service
•The
colors and cultures of the airlines we love to hate
Cockpit
Confidential covers not only the nuts and bolts of flying, but also the grand
theater of air travel, from airport architecture to inflight service to the
excitement of travel abroad. It's a thoughtful, funny, at times deeply personal
look into the strange and misunderstood world of commercial flying.
The ideal
book for frequent flyers, nervous passengers, and global travelers.
Refreshed
and vastly expanding from the original Ask the Pilot, with approximately 75
percent new material.
