It is a superb book, I particularly enjoyed the
three podcasts discussing DP’s life in aviation
As already mentioned, while the book is technically brilliant and inevitably a little
dry, the audio excerpts dispel this impression completely
His aviation career is fascinating and incredibly wide ranging, he brought meticulous high standards and a no excuses
attitude to certification testing we have all benefited from and then he was kind enough
to share these invaluable insights in this book
I wish someone would write an updated version retaining the core of the original publication while adding chapters on fly by wire, fms, and other assorted modern technologies
