About the Book

Frequent flying is often dreary. Sometimes unpleasant. Sometimes in extremis. This is the antidote.

Frequent Flyer Humor and One-Upmanship is a collection of humorous or incongruous short stories and one-liners. It's to give you smiles and chuckles punctuated by an occasional knee- slapping guffaw. It starts with reservations and ends with landings. There's an occasional side trip along the way in case flying is more interesting than taking a ride on a winged bus. One-Upmanship because some of the information is somewhat sophisticated and may be unknown.

Frequent Flyer Humor was created for you by a former frequent flyer. Been there, done that, it's happened to me.

About the Author:

Every Sunday out. Every Friday back. For weeks, months and years. Innumerable delays and prevarications, contemptuous treatment by terminal and airline personnel, instantaneous altitude changes, tumultuous final approaches, teeth-rattling landings, extreme baggage waits at the carousel because the bag was snatched at the door when boarding because the bins were full.

In addition to countless standards and heavies, he has flown in a 4-seater chopper without doors (summer, no A/C), ski-equipped C-130s and an Arab aircraft with a tree branch in the landing gear due to a high tree and a low takeoff. Has also stuffed wet wash cloths into a ruptured fuselage seal over the North Atlantic and has sat in the cockpit while his crazy buddy chased caribou up a fjord.

Have written for Barrons' and other financial publications. Been interviewed by newspapers and magazines; on radio and TV. Activities have been reported in the New York Times, U.S. News and World Report, Medical Economics, Tax Avoidance Digest and others.
