How to Land a Plane

Take a seatâ€”the captainâ€™s seat, that isâ€”and relax. Youâ€™re about to land a Boeing 747.

The mystery of flight is magical; the reality, still more soâ€”from the physics that keeps a 450-ton vehicle aloft, to the symphony of technology and teamwork that safely sets it down again. Take it from Mark Vanhoenackerâ€”British Airways pilot, internationally bestselling author, and your new flight instructor. This is How to Land a Plane.

Vanhoenacker covers every stepâ€”from approach to touchdownâ€” with precision, wit, and infectious enthusiasm. Aided by dozens of illustrations, youâ€™ll learn all the tools and rules of his craft: altimeters, glidepaths, alignment, and more. Before you know it, youâ€™ll be on the ground, exiting the aircraft with a whole new appreciation for the art and science of flying.
