Propellerhead, by Anthony Woodward.
Young fella studying Law decides that he isn't getting enough action, the way to pull chicks is to be ... a pilot! I know, I'll learn to fly.
Finds that flying anything in the UK is a bit beyond the average student budget... but ends up in a Thruster
- some of the adventures make interesting Human Factors case studies.
a cracking good read, many laughs ...and all true!
Like many good books, available in every second hand bookshop and remainder bin. When I was flying RAAus I gave one to every student who I sent solo in the Thruster (and now I think of it they probably sold it back to the 2nd hand bookshop so I could buy it and give it to the next victim....)
