Good Review

In This Valley Aftermath is a good review of what not to do when flying. As the office manager of a flight school, I have recommended to the manager that he include this book in the school's library and I am thinking of suggesting that the chief flight instructor consider making it required reading as some of the younger students do not understand why some things are repeated over and over and over.

Excellent

A great "lessons learned" book for pilots and flight students alike. As members of the aviation community we can't afford to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. This is how we learn from the mistakes we don't dare make ourselves.

Great reading for pilot or passenger!

If you are a pilot or a frequent flyer, or just interested in why aircraft accidents happen, this book is great reading. Basically a group of short stories, each one gives insight into the real human aspects of flying. I have never looked at flying the same way since finishing this book in 1994, and since then I have re-read it several times. It has prompted me to notice things I never would have otherwise and even question some pilots (upon landing) about them. It truly shows that professionalism in the cockpit is essential to aircraft and passenger safety. I bought and read this book when I was traveling a good bit on corporate aircraft. I felt compelled afterwards to loan it to our corporate flight department, and all of our company pilots ended up reading it. They all commented on what a great book it was, and that it really made you think about the decisions you make every day in the cockpit.
