A Good Aviation Read
I recommend "Six Feet Over" by Peter Charles. No commercial connection, but Peter is a good friend. Autobography of his 10,000 hours, mainly crop spraying, in a career that covered being a young mechanic in the ATA to the demise of aerial crop spraying in the UK. Great book and a lovely guy.

Real Flying.
WanderOO;
Anything that kindles memories of real flying ( crop dusting ) and the pleasure of just doing it is a " must have ". It's on Amazon with a five star rating so it is sure to be interesting.
Books on crop dusting or any type of ag flying should be made compulsory reading for todays flock of "autopilot only " instant Captain wannabees. It might up the ante and raise awareness of what real flying is all about and it could just possibly help some understand the connection between pleasure and peril. Thanks for drawing this book to my attention. Regards,
