In-flight Entertainment Elliott HesterElliot Hester
内容提要：
Human behaviour is rarely so riotously incomprehensible than when witnessed on an aeroplane at 30.000feet.Elliott hester,with an unerring eye for the funny,absurd and revolting,has flown the crazy skies for the last sixteen years as a flight attendant.
The result is a behind-the-scenes take on the reality of aeroplane culture,where rationality takes a nose-dive and in-flight misbehaviour checks in with the baggage.Along the way you'll meet penny-pinching pilots,storm-trooper flight attendants,weeping businessmen,high altitude sex fiends,frequent flyer pugilists,and an unending cast of characters who should never hav been issued a boarding pass.
