In Skyfaring, airline pilot and flight romantic Mark Vanhoenacker shares his irrepressible love of flying on a journey from day to night, from new ways of mapmaking and the poetry of physics to the names of winds and the nature of clouds. Here, anew, is the simple wonder and transcendent joy of motion and the remarkable new perspectives that height and distance bestow on everything we love.

What Mark did here is spectacular!

What did you like best about this story?
I liked all the things that this book was at the same time. This book was a story of Mark's life, career and day-to-day on the job. This book was for aviation enthusiasts as it gave detailed information about the processes and mechanics of flight. This book was both of those things at the same time which made it most intriguing. I also like, as a person who travels a lot myself, having my opinions and thoughts on travel and all that goes into it reaffirmed by Mark. Mark feels and experiences things much like I do when travelling and I assume this aspect of the book will make it resonate with a wider audience than just 747 fans.
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
There are so many interesting aviation facts in this book - some quite technical - but Mark drops them into the midst of his life story so well that they do not turn the book into a textbook - they enhance the story.
