"""John Frearson has written an engaging and highly relatable book. Using real life examples to illustrate his points he provides a thought-provoking analysis of operational safety in aviation. All aviation managers and aircrew would benefit from reading the book and reflecting on how best to manage time critical situations. John Frearson is a natural communicator. It is a triumph that he can impart his vast knowledge and aviation experience in such a readable and enjoyable format. I highly recommend this book."" Simon Lutton, Executive Director, Australian Federation of Air Pilots, Australia ""My friend and former colleague, John Frearson, has offered up an invaluable resource that every airline employee and every person interested in aviation safety should read."" Sam Coats, retired senior airline executive and Chair of the Board of Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, USA ""In short, an outstanding read for aviation professionals from all functional areas in the aviation business. Not exactly a “quick read” but one deserving of deep concentration and careful introspection. Love how John wound the case studies around the technical content thereby driving home the critical importance of awareness, conservatism, and communication!"" George H. Snyder, President & CEO GHS Aviation Group, LLC and former Senior VP Safety at Korean Air, USA ""No matter what the level of experience in aviation safety management and investigation the reader will find this book a fascinating insight into why aviation accidents and serious incidents continue to occur. I will be recommending this to everyone I can. It really helps people especially those who are not pilots to understand answers to the question: how did the pilots get themselves into this situation in the first place?"" Deborah Lawrie, airline pilot and safety and training professional, Australia"
