A good read
Any aviation enthusiast would enjoy this book, be he or she a PPL or Glider Pilot or wannabe commercial, the tales Jack tells are spot on I have been there several times. Most bush pilots have not been to charm school so expect them to tell it as it is and not to tolerate fools. Your BA captain would not get involved with loading bags for difficult passengers, there are minions to do that he just flies, maybe he gives a weather prospect on arrival and that's it. Personally I really liked the Russian pilots story landing in Congo using a hand held GPS, real seat of the pants flying.
