Autorenporträt

Austin James was born in a sleepy town in Wales. He overcame polio at age two, and with no more than a secondary education and without much prospect of employment in the area, he travelled across the newly built Severn Bridge in 1969 to take up an apprenticeship on Concorde at Filton, before moving to a twenty-two-year career at British Airways in London, another difficult move. Then he became chief flying instructor for Cloudbase Aviation, a private limited company he set up. Over the past 38 years, he has recounted the adventures and pitfalls that came with that life of adventure. In this second book, he focuses more on his personal life, including the sadness of losing parents and pilot friends, along with more interesting experiences not mentioned in book one, Living the Dream.
