Summary

Squawk 7700 is a first-hand account of author Peter Buffington's experiences as a commercial airline pilot and the journey he took to reach his childhood dream. Buckle your seatbelt and prepare for an eye-opening, turbulent ride into the world of aviation from the pilot's seat. From student pilot at age 15, to flight instructor, to nighttime cargo pilot, and finally as first officer aboard the ATR 72 turboprop airliners island hopping the Caribbean, Squawk 7700 is a riveting aviation adventure.

Overall an interesting story and profound message. A bit too much unnecessary filler at times (e.g. chapter 10 - an anecdote about buying a subway sandwich that was just pointless). My main issue was the choice of reader - Peter was in his 20's for the whole of the book, however the reader sounds as though he is at least in his mid 60's. Took away from enjoyment of the story.
