Humphrys gives insight into the early days of commercial aviation in an industry that has seen tremendous change in the last sixty years. One of few pilots to experience an emergency crash landing,he shares the view from inside the cockpit. Recalling events that are heartwarming, funny, and absolutely true, he imparts to the reader a day-in-the-life of a commercial airline pilot. Welcome aboard.
