Bush pilots...The book!!!

For all former, actual and wanna be bush pilots! This is a must read book!!! I just started to read it and I cannot stop...but I need to go to fly!!!
"Flying asses through Africa" by Jack Mitchell

https://www.amazon.com/Flying-Asses-Thr ... und+Africa

An amusing and politically incorrect look at aviation in the Dark Continent

Charter flying for the Safari industry sees some very interesting people and not all of them act rationally. From time to time there is some strange behavior, some of it funny and some of it definitely not!

This text encompasses 150 short stories with everything from racism to nothing short of clinical stupidity. Little moments I am sure some people pray would be lost or forgotten - alas here they are.

As I wrote this I started to believe it to be more of an amateur study in behavioral thinking or maybe a lack of thinking would be a more apt description. Some of the stories have some strong language much of which formed part of the moment.

Funny, sad, ludicrous, or moronic, just remember these were very real interactions. Enjoy.
