WHATEVER WERE YOU THINKING OF, CAPTAIN?

A HANDBOOK FOR AIRLINE PASSENGERS

Captain John L. Morton

This book is aimed at airline passengers who are interested in learning what goes on in front of the Flight Deck door and in what goes through the Captain’s mind as he operates a service. In this handy volume ‘the interested layman’ is guided through the various aspects of a journey by air.

The author’s thirty-five-year career ranged from flying mini-airliners that landed on the beach airfield of the Isle of Barra, to being a Training Captain on British Airways’ wide-bodied aircraft. While this book describes some of the technical aspects of an air journey, jargon is minimised and the practical aspect of the content is lightened with anecdote and humour. Its ultimate objective is intended to suggest a relaxed and confident atmosphere to flying.

Whatever were you thinking of, Captain? is illustrated by cartoons by the talented figment, the nom-de-plume of Captain John Reed, a long-time Flight Deck colleague.
