- A 1,000-entry 640-page aviation A-Z with a human touch for perusing at leisure to build up a treasure trove of invaluable and fascinating knowledge.
- simply explaining piloting, navigation, instruments, airliners, business jets, GA, drones, military aircraft, missiles, MAD, AF447, and little-known facts.
- An inspiring present for anyone thinking of a career in aviation. Provides a treasure trove of knowledge required not only by pilots and others working in aviation but also by engineers, journalists, the military, amongst others concerned with it.
- Besides dealing with piloting procedures and the "nuts and bolts" of aviation, FLYING KNOW IT ALL even delves into wider topics such as the "Madman Theory" in international relations, nuclear warfare, quantum mechanics, and military strategy, not forgetting the mental health of pilots and the fear of flying of passengers.
- As "extras," there are some special entries such the unusual combination of human factors underlying the implausible Air France AF447 crash, where in the absence of the captain the aircraft stalled and began dropping like a brick into the sea.
- Other fascinating entries even include "famous feats of airmanship," the effectiveness of strategic bombing in World War 2, and Operation Paperclip spiriting away of German scientists such Werner Von Braun to the US at war's end.
- A great tool for improving one's understanding of English related to aviation if one is not a native speaker. Unfortunately the inexpensive 19-hour! audiobook is for the moment only available in the US.
- A "must have" book for reference libraries.
