About the book
Pamela Hughes thought the career of air stewardess the most interesting and romantic of all. She was the youngest and most eager of the embryo stewardesses on Skywide Airlines’ Air Hostess Course, enjoying every moment of her training, the excitement of her trips to colourful far-away places, and the crowning dignity of her first trans-atlantic flight. But even the most glamorous job has its problems, and Pamela was to have her share, in the form of Roger Carson, the attractive Technical Instructor, who disapproved of women on the airline in general, and, it seemed, of Pamela in particular.
