Write about how the setting or any of the characters remind you of people or characters in your own personal life. How are the situations or events similar to your own life? How are they alike and how are they different?
I would like to become a commercial pilot myself and have already had about 160 flying hours on different types of aircrafts. Therefore, I was fascinating by this book, not only because of the extraordinary landing on the Hudson River which is described so accurately, but also because of the personal background of Capt. Sullenberger, which I can compare in the initial phase with mine.
Like me he started flying and had his first solo flight at the age of 16, but I can well imagine that he didn’t have any voice contact with his flight instructor – according to what it says in the text. On the other hand, we have to assume that the plane he used wasn’t as well equipped and safe as the one I fly with.
It’s also interesting for me to know in advance what is coming up step by step in my own career as a future pilot.
From all these statements, it should be clear why I have chosen this book and why I can well identify myself with the technical education of Capt. Sullenberger.
