Review:

"The definitive book for getting ahead in this business."  --Capt. O. J. Alexander, pilot interviewer for a major airline

"Well written, creative and accurate...There's a lot of meat in those few pages." --Dr. Charles Ahlstrand, director of the Career Center at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Prescott, Arizona

"So, I put out my ten resumes and waited, and waited, and waited...I had never read any books that explain just how important networking is in getting an airline job, let alone how to go about it." --Darius W. Johnson, commuter captain
