Editorial Reviews

"You know you are in for a treat when someone knows a subject frontwards and backwards, has a wicked sense of humor and a ton of compassion, and starts geeking out over it with over the top enthusiasm. Can't put it down!"

"While reading books on the Chernobyl disaster or war tragedies may not help us prevent the loss of life, books like Pilot Error are useful in showing us how carelessness and the piling-up of mistakes can end badly in a way that can have a positive effect in our own lives. Ms. Wrigley's writing is detailed, straightforward, and always engaging, and seeing the lapses in judgement that caused accidents in the past can help us all make better decisions in the future. This, like all of her other books, was (yes, I confess) entertaining and difficult to put down."

"If air crashes can be entertaining, Sylvia Wrigley has done just that in this book."
