About this listen

Join me once again as we take to the skies. This time to fly the incredible Boeing 747 for what would turn out to be a world record breaking 34 years. Following on from The Self Improver, the story takes us to new challenges and new dangers as the ultimate "Self Improver" attempts to establish himself amongst aviation elites. Nothing can be taken for granted and nothing goes according to plan. From Golden Retriever interventions to mid air collisions, flying the B747 was not at all what I had expected! Come join me for the adventure, I promise you that you will not be disappointed.

Really interesting and fun read from start to finish. Interesting to hear what it takes to captain a 747.

Insightful and humorous

These days we tend to take air travel for granted and do not realize or appreciate the dedicated men and women, like Nick Eades, who make our business and vacation travel possible. The author has definitely had more than his fair share of excitement and adventure along the way which makes this audiobook a great listen. The book also reminded me of some of my travel adventures but I can’t match Nick’s! Overall a very enjoyable audio book!

This book charts the continuing journey of the author through his aviation career. “Never a dull moment”.
