Flying By The Seat of My Pants

THIS BOOK IS A GREAT READ. LOTS OF FUN AND HUMOUR. PERFECT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BECOME A FLIGHT ATTENDANT OR IS INTERESTED IN THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT LIFE STYLE. MS. MARKS PERSONABLE QUALITY COMES THROUGH HER WRITING VERY CLEARLY. YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR ON THE FLIGHT WITH HER. ENJOY!!

QUITE A CHARACTER

A FEW MONTHS AGO I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR MARTHA MARKS SPEAK IN ATLANTA. SHE IS QUITE A CHARACTER AND HAD ME HOLDING THE SIDE OF MY STOMACH FROM LAUGHING SO MUCH. THIS LITTLE BOOK REFLECTS ALL OF HER WILD ADVENTURES IN THE SKY AND ON THE GROUND. SHE'S THE NEIGHBOR YOU WISHED YOU COULD HAVE WHEN YOU JUST NEEDED SOMEONE TO SIT DOWN AT YOUR KITCHEN TABLE AND MAKE YOU LAUGH. I LOOK FORWARD TO READING HER OTHER BOOKS.

A very entertaining book!

As a young adult, I very much enjoyed this book. It is funny and really puts a smile on your face. You can tell that the author has put a lot into her book and isn't afraid to leave anything out about her experiences! If you are a frequent traveler, have been on an airplane, or considering being a Flight Attendant you must read this book! It was a wonderful read. Highly recommended to all. Enjoy! Thanks for a great book Marsha!

WONDERFULLY AMUSING AND A FUN READ!

I HAVE BEEN A FLIGHT ATTENDANT FOR 27 YEARS AND I TOTALLY ENJOYED THIS BOOK. SAT AT HOME ON A RAINY DAY AND HAD A WONDERFUL DAY UNDER THE COVERS WITH THIS BOOK. FUNNY LITTLE STORIES- LIKE TAKING A DAY OF SHORT HOPS AROUND THE WORLD WITH A FUN CREW! THANKS TO MARSHA FOR A FUN READ!!

You've got to read this book.

I first heard of Marsha and the above book while listening to WROR here in Boston. I read the book yesterday. It was the best and funniest book I have read in a long time. I was laughing out loud and reading bits to anyone who would listen. (I was in a coffee shop at the time.) Marsha thank you for writing this book. I will recommend it to everyone I know. Sue
