Résumé
A kaleidoscope of stories from a forty-year career as a pilot - from learning to fly to retirement as a South African Airways Captain - this book discloses humorous stories of flying crew and the crazy situations they sometimes find themselves in. It introduces the reader to the airline practical jokers, the Lotharios, marital 'Floating Trophies', and a host of other unique airline characters. On a more serious note, it relates, from first-hand experience, the full story of SAA's only hijacking, of ground to air missiles, terrorism, the shooting down of the Air Rhodesia Viscounts, sanction-busting, clandestine operations, and the 'Hell run'.
It details the bright and dark side of exotic destinations, of hurricanes in Florida, and ditching exercises at sea with unexpected consequences. These represent but a few of a myriad of African, aviation and airline-related topics covered.
