In sunny weather, in rain, in thunderstorms, in calm weather, in strong winds, in fog - civil aviation pilots have to perform their work in a wide variety of conditions. Airfields are not always simple and friendly, and liners, despite the greatness of engineering, are capricious.

What difficulties can you encounter in flight? How long do you need to study to be a pilot and how are they trained? Is it true that the profession of a pilot is as exciting as it is commonly thought?

“When everything is just beginning” is a book written by Denis Okan, a civil aviation instructor pilot and author of an aviation blog. In it, he talks about the first steps in the profession and what makes it so beautiful and bright, despite all the difficulties and risks. He recalls the years of study at the flight school and the Academy of Civil Aviation, which took place in the period of the 90s, work on the village "corn" and the first flights on the Tu-154, an internship in another country and difficult flights that became invaluable experience.

< p> In the book you will find a lot of interesting things about the design of aircraft and the specifics of pilot training and piloting in difficult weather conditions. And also how the crew works, what misunderstandings sometimes occur on board, how pilots prepare for future flights and much more about the everyday life of civil aviation.
