Readers learn bits and pieces about Vanhoenacker’s childhood, career path, and significant relationships, but overall the book lacks a strong personal narrative, which is disappointing. Extended descriptions of the author’s hometown of Pittsfield, MA, might challenge the patience of a U.S. reader expecting to read about more distant locales. Not recommended.
A singular glimpse into the multidimensional life of an extraordinary airline pilot. Recommended for aviation specialists and enthusiasts, airline personnel, frequent flyers, and public libraries.
