Ebook About A poetic and nuanced exploration of the human experience of flight that reminds us of the full imaginative weight of our most ordinary journeys—and reawakens our capacity to be amazed. The twenty-first century has relegated airplane flight—a once remarkable feat of human ingenuity—to the realm of the mundane. Mark Vanhoenacker, a 747 pilot who left academia and a career in the business world to pursue his childhood dream of flight, asks us to reimagine what we—both as pilots and as passengers—are actually doing when we enter the world between departure and discovery. In a seamless fusion of history, politics, geography, meteorology, ecology, family, and physics, Vanhoenacker vaults across geographical and cultural boundaries; above mountains, oceans, and deserts; through snow, wind, and rain, renewing a simultaneously humbling and almost superhuman activity that affords us unparalleled perspectives on the planet we inhabit and the communities we form.Book Skyfaring: A Journey with a Pilot Review :
Okay, you know who you are. You're the passenger who always chooses a window seat, so you can gaze out during the flight, looking on as the world on the ground passes smoothly beneath you. Maybe you like traveling at night, so you can see the lights of cities large and small twinkling below, reminding you that the world is a series of lights. Maybe you wish the inflight entertainment monitors would show the takeoffs and landings so you could see what the pilots can see. And even though you might find it difficult to put yourself completely in the hands of those at the airplane's controls, you love to fly. It's for those fliers - and I'm including myself - that Mark Vanhoenacker has written "Skyfaring: A Journey with a Pilot".Mark Vanhoenacker is American born and raised and is pilot with British Airways. Now in his 40's, he took up piloting somewhat later in life than most; he didn't become a commercial pilot until he was 29. But he had always loved flying and airplanes and traveling, and had known from an early age that he wanted to fly commercially. Vanhoenacker has flown two plane types in his career; an Airbus which flew the "short" routes in and out of London, and the 747, the plane for long flights. London to Tokyo, London to Cape Town, London to Mumbai, to name a few."Skyfaring" is not a conventional book about flying airplanes. Vanhoenacker takes the reader on voyages through the air while talking about both the mundane and the magic of flying. Dividing the book into a series of chapter, some of which are "Lift", "Water", "Encounters", and "Return", the author takes the reader up in the air with him. "Encounters" is about the connections - both personal and job-related - that Vanhoenacker makes while flying. It's one of the best chapters because he talks about meeting old friends on planes and on layovers, and making new ones who he will see...whenever. He also makes the comparison between travel by water and travel by air. Many of the terms of both ships and airplanes are similar. Even "souls" - who are generally referred to when a plane crashes or a ship sinks - is used in the same way.But most of what Mark Vanhoenacker writes about is the "magic" of piloting a huge plane full of people, whether traveling for business or pleasure. So, if you've ever sat in your seat in a plane and wondered if the guy flying it has the same feeling of wonderment you have, yes, he probably does.This is one of the best work of non-fiction I've read this year. Buy it and savor it. I don't usually do reviews, but this was truly an extraordinary book and absolutely well worth the time. I have always loved aircraft and although I have never flown a plane, was, for a time, an avid flight sim enthusiast. I don't fly/travel much, sadly, just a yearly trip to the west coast. What stood out to me was the many times, many many times, I said to myself "gee, I have felt the exact same way as the author" regardless of the many topics, his excellent exposition resonated with me !000%. His sense of awe looking at the planet below and descriptions of the mountains, deserts, oceans, populated areas (few and far between) was quite moving. When I was finished with the book, I was sad because it was done ... even though he told a complete (IMHO) story ... I wanted to continue reading .... YES, it was that WELL WRITTEN and very ENJOYABLE. I would recommend this book to you without reservation .... you'll be very very happy you read it, regardless of your interest in aviation or flying.
