About this listen

Flying to a faraway destination can be wondrous and frightening. When settling down for a long flight, a range of questions may come to mind about some of the unusual aspects of flying, like should you be concerned about the lightning storm in the distance? Or why do you feel like a zombie after crossing several time zones?

These and many more questions are explored in an easy to read and humorous way. In answering these questions you will be taken on a journey through a range of aviation topics with great care and insight. You will see why the human body is not well adapted to some aspects of flying. These range from issues with low oxygen, low air pressure, g-forces, and radiation levels. You will see why your flight needs to steer clear of a range of hazardous weather conditions. From thunderstorms throwing out massive hailstones, to freezing conditions in the clouds, which are trying to turn the aircraft into an ice block.

From the author of Answers to Unusual Questions about How Aircraft Fly, this book will help you understand the countless aspects of your flight that work hard to ensure you arrive safely.
