How to Land an A330 Airbus is seriously funny. I absolutely enjoyed this book thoroughly. I know anyone in any group of preferred genres will enjoy this book, whether your into humour or not it is worth the read. i think this material has been cleverly put together and it is the masterpiece it was deemed to be. Ellen is fantastic and definitely a raw and natural talent. this book is brilliant.
