Does That Mean I Fail?: A Humorous Look at Pilot Checkrides
by Brooks Black

As collection of humorous first-hand accounts of pilot check-rides, Does That Mean I Fail? is geared towards both pilots and non-pilots. After years of Designated Pilot Examiners (DPEs) thinking and saying, Nobody would believe this, and, Somebody should write a book, Brooks Black finally has. Does That Mean I Fail? is the result of nearly 100 check-rides and the authors own personal experiences. Combined, they allow for new and unique insight into the exciting world behind flight. Brook Blacks writing reads with a good dose of humor and information. It is at once highly detailed and exciting. Does That Mean I Fail? is sure to both entertain and enlighten.
