From the Back Cover
Shortly after it dawned upon the average hijacker that his anti-social pastime had less future than that of a chocolate oven-glove, many airlines returned to their convivial practice of allowing the occasional passenger to visit the flight deck.
To bluff successfully in this subject it is necessary not only to understand some of the technology involved but also to appreciate the sort of lives which the practitioners live.

5.0 out of 5 stars
An amazing amount of aviation info in a humorous little book,
By
This review is from: The Bluffer's Guide to the Flight Deck: Bluff Your Way on the Flight Deck (Bluffer's Guides - Oval Books) (Paperback)
Written in light, humorous prose, I'd recommend it highly to anyone with even a little interest in aviation. Pros may laugh at the recognizable situations and anecdotes that Ken Beere wrote up.While reading you learn about well known and lesser known avation items that stick with you because of the puns that go with them. Having read this time after time, I only wish I could find more books by him.
