Overview

"I have always wanted to fly. The job of an airline pilot is an interesting one. No doubt. He or she battles with elements the passenger never sees, faces dangers only he knows and forms a relationship that is a romance between man, machine, and endless sky! While the passengers sleep, you do your best to avoid clouds, winds, storms and all else. One city today, another tomorrow. Breakfast in Lagos, lunch in London and dinner in Frankfurt. To the man on the ground, a life of glitz and glamour, but is it really? It is exciting to fly from one destination to another; sometimes, visiting more cities in a year than most people do in their entire lives. The truth is, after a while it, becomes what it is - just another job that takes you away from home, keeps you awake at all hours, moves you from one hotel room to another, through several time zones within days and often leaves you wondering, ""Where am I?"" It is a job you must love, or you would quickly find yourself disgruntled and discontented. When the excitement of battling elements and living life at 33,000 feet above sea level wears off, you need something bigger than a paycheck to keep you sane when the turbulence hits at 2am and you're flying over the Atlantic. I have always wanted to fly. Flying is the one profession that spoke my name from as long as I can remember myself wanting anything. I have been privileged to have this dream come true. Everyday of my life, I am grateful that I got the opportunity to live my dream. In the course of this career, I have found myself lonely, afraid, unsure, excited, upset, happy and all the gamut of human emotions. I have met men, women and children of every race and experienced cultures beyond mine. I have looked around me and learnt many lessons from my travels around the world. Some of these experiences and lessons form the bulk of this book. It is my view of the world from the cockpit and from deep within me as I have sat in hotel room after hotel room, city after city; storm after storm and time zone after time zone. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelt. Let's fly! TSE, somewhere on Earth."
