Customer Reviews

To be an Airline Pilot by Andrew Cook.
A brilliant book and a must for anyone wanting to be a pilot! I have spent so much time trying to find out about how to become a commercial pilot and have received so many conflicting views that I was totally confused! I thought I would try this book and think it is excellent. It's laid out very well, is easy to read and has given me a good idea of where to train, how I can raise the finance to do it, what to expect, what I will be expected to learn and some very useful tips on getting a job at the end of it all.
Thank you Andrew, your words have helped me no end and I hope I can follow in your footsteps as becoming a commercial pilot is my dream too.

Captain Sensible
Having read Andrew's fantastic and swashbuckling book I can only conclude that he is a real hero of our time. With his nerves of steel, sparkling wit and beautiful body, he sets an example to our children and our children's children.

This is an epic gushing with morality and of truely spiritual quality. I firmly believe that whether or not you are particularly interested in aviation this is a book of the highest order.
