Airframe by Michael Crichton
3.0
Rating: 3 stars
As you would expect from Crichton, the author who made prehistoric reptiles technical, Airframe is full of facts and figures and numbers and information about planes, and how they fly (and of course how they don't). Some sections of the book you have to read multiple times, because there's a lot of jargon there that to the average lay person who doesn't work at the airport would not understand (i.e. me). The ending was good though, and I enjoyed proverbial mic drop moment, and the fact that the annoying journalists got their comeuppance.
Also, highly command the audiobook recording made by My Dreams Aloft on YouTube (link to playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEqpTeu2Z3BU86lu3WS1-jnk6RM96biXQ), who I 1000% believe should be a professional audiobook narrator one day, if given the chance.
