SECRETS OF A STEWARDESS (PB)

Back in the 80s, when flying was sexy, hanky-panky abounded. Smoking on flights was permitted, passengers wore suits, the cockpit was never locked, and the cutlery was made of steel. Against the backdrop of this anything-goes world of flying, stewardess Gretchen Ryan’s career saw her bounding through London, Hong Kong, Mauritius, Ilha do Sal and New York. In this humorous, tongue-in-cheek memoir, she recalls amusing incidents, and a fair few tragedies, both in the air and around the world.
