Ever wondered what happens behind the closed door of the flight deck?
This eye-opening and unforgettable diary charts Nigel Knot's thirty years as a commercial airline pilot as he travels to all corners of the world.
Laugh-out-loud hilarious for those who want a fun, enjoyable read.
Informative for all the aviation enthusiasts out there.
And reassuring for the countless number of people who would rather have root canal surgery than step inside an aeroplane.

After graduating from Nottingham university with a degree in Civil Engineering Nigel joined the RAF on an eight-year commission. He flew Chinook helicopters in the European theatre and the Falkland Islands.
After leaving the RAF, he joined a leading British airline and flew the Tristar, Airbus A320 family and Boeing 777. He spent nine years as a first officer before being promoted to captain in 1999.
During his 30 years with the airline, he flew both short and long haul routes, travelling to all corners of the world.
His hobbies include a life-long passion for scuba diving, chalk stream fly fishing, and music.
He is married, and has two grown up children.
