Book Read Request

Sort of an oddball request...

I'm close to finally publishing a book about regional flying that I've been working on for a while. I'm wondering if I could get 5 people (ideally who don't actually know me in real life!) to read through it and provide a little bit of feedback, or note any massive spelling/grammar errors you see. The book has been edited, so there shouldn't be too many of those... hopefully. I'm mostly looking for readability and understandability. Once I get feedback from people that actually understand flying a bit, I'm going to try it on people that don't know anything about flying.

@Autothrust Blue can attest to it being somewhat readable (hopefully!) It's about 125 pages divided into 6 chapters.

If you are interested and think you can provide a little bit of feedback prior to the end of the month, send me a message with your email address and I'll send you the PDF.

Thanks so much in advance.

It's ok, Jimmy, your secret is safe with me.
 
I have a couple crossings coming up, I'll gladly take some reading material.

I might be a target. Licensed and looking into flying for a sunset career (51 years old) but have never flown professionally or 121 or anything. Also, I've read books previously. As for as literary talents, I've been featured in Penthouse Letters several times. If I can help I'm game. If not, that's okay as well.
 
I spent about 6 years of my life editing and writing extremely thorough history texts, so I would be more than happy to read, edit and send my feedback.
