Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A fascinating fear of flying book from a commercial airline pilot and author of the popular website askthepilot.com. For millions of people, travel by air is a confounding, uncomfortable, and even frightening experience. When you go behind the scenes, however, you can see that the grand theater of air travel is actually fascinating. From the intricate design of airport architecture to the logistics of inflight service, here is everything you need to know about flying. Commercial airlines like to hide the truth from customers and do nothing to comfort nervous fliers. And what's scarier than the unknown? In this aviation book, pilot Patrick Smith breaks down that barrier and tells you everything you need to know about flying, including: How planes fly, and a revealing look at the men and women who fly them Straight talk on turbulence, pilot training, and safety The real story on delays, congestion, and the dysfunction of the modern airport The myths and misconceptions of cabin air and cockpit automation Terrorism in perspective, and a provocative look at security Airfare, seating woes, and the pitfalls of airline customer service The true colors and cultures of the airlines we love to hate Cockpit Confidential is a thoughtful, funny, and at times deeply personal look into the strange and misunderstood world of commercial flying. If you liked other books about airplanes for adults, including Soar by Tom Bunn or Skyfaring, you'll find reassurance, humor, and guidance in Cockpit Confidential. "Anyone remotely afraid of flying should read this book, as should anyone who appreciates good writing and great information." —The New York Times, on ASK THE PILOT "Patrick Smith is extraordinarily knowledgeable about modern aviation...the ideal seatmate, a companion, writer and explorer." —Boston Globe

Download or read book How It All Works & How We Fit In written by Don Kerr and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2004-11-22 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don Kerr www.donkerr.com Jane Roberts SETH books taught us that we create our reality through our beliefs. Richard Bachs books showed us that space and time are illusions which we create and which then reflect back to us, usually surprising us along the way! Written by a practicing architect who enjoys seeing how things go together, this book explores many areas of wonderment: Where did we come from? What are we doing here? Where does it all lead? Is this reincarnation stuff for real? And what, for Heavens sake, does time is an illusion mean to our time-obsessed generations? Can anyone help us understand any of this? And then there are ghosts, the light at the end of the tunnel, near-death experiences, possession, ouija boards, astral travel. A lot of stuff to consider, or be repelled by. Asked by a confused young woman in the New Age section of a bookstore in Montral if the author had any idea where a beginner should start reading to avoid the garbage, he suggested several titles in which he had confidence, but realized that there really was nothing on any shelves at that time like HOW IT ALL WORKS which could pull all the strings together into a lifeline. What was needed was something that could give one an overview of the related thinking of the streamspsychic theorems, unexplained observations and experiences, odd practices, the speculations of theoretical physicswhich would avoid nonsensical invention. And it would have to be daring, because we live in a society and culture where we have been brought up to believe a large number of things on faith which simply dont hold up to thoughtful examination. And that can be daunting. There was a time when owning this book would have had you imprisoned. It was clever of you to incarnate in a historic period when you can enjoy this speculation without looking over your shoulder! This book will try to answer your questions, will look at what we know so far, what the implications are of that knowledge, and how we can adjust our lives so that they better fit our dreams. And we can. Simple illustrations show ways to visualize several of the concepts. Written with a lively sense of humor, the text will challenge your programming, but will gently guide you to a place where you will know that lifes challenges have purpose and meaning, and nothing is hidden from you in a neutral Universe that somehow cares. You just have to take off your blinders. Life is adventuresome, and it is us who make it appear any way we wish. Choose well.
