Well-written and relatable, today's BOTD is an inspirational memoir in which Captain Allen shares his dreams, goals, and personal experiences, as well as the path he took to achieve them. Readers interested in aviation and stories of determination, hard work, and perseverance are sure to enjoy this one! Thanks for the great review! :-)

This memoir follows the journey of Captain Allen as he navigated his aviation career. He shows all the bumps in the road and proves the concept that through perseverance, anything is possible. My favorite aspect of the book is the inclusion of all the help from friends that he received because it shows how we need people in our lives to do great things. Congrats on the BOTD!

This book comes in for those who think life is predestined. It is argued that we are what we are because of the things we do. However, this book is somewhat countering that. Things will work in God's own time.Great review.

When I saw the title and cover, I thought it was about the Wright brothers building the first airplane. All the same, it sounds like a great book. Nice review.

I like how the author kept at his goal to be a pilot in spite of many challenges along the way. It seems to be a well, detailed memoir that will likely appeal to fans of aviation and those who are interested in a career as a pilot.

Nothing in this review suggests a humorous side to the book. Yet the title itself is funny, let alone the prospect of flying somehow making you feel closer to God; physically, at least. I would be disappointed if all the content is as heavy and serious as it seems.

God created us and with that He created a plan for each of us. Although we don't always know what that plan is, we have faith that God will lead us. This is a well written book and review that captures the essence of us and God. Well done on #BOTD!

I grew up being taught to have goals in life with the understanding that God may have other plans for me. This book reinforces this belief. Thank you for your review.

I know nothing about aviation, but I'm intrigued by how the book has 35 chapters. It's been a while I've read a long book so I want to give it a try. Reading about someone's detailed life would certainly teach a lot.

This book is not for me as someone who doesn't believe that God has a plan. Nevertheless, I'm certain that for those who enjoy faith-based stories, this will be a good read. Congrats to the author on his achievement.
