The book paints a detailed picture of commercial pilot lifestyle, from the struggle to pay for training to time spent down route to thoughts of retirement. Once a glamorous occupation, commercial flying is today more of a job than a vocation. Many pilots work the maximum permissible hours for increasingly meagre rewards under stressful conditions.
