Synopsis

Imagine you're the pilot of a small plane, flying your family to visit some friends. Visibility is zero, so you're flying with your instrument clearance, when ice starts forming on the wings. The engine stops. Then the communication radios quit.

What do you do?

If you're Beth Niebuhr, you follow procedure, calmly fly the plane, and arrive safely at your destination, without any of your passengers even getting worried.

Then there was the time when the engine caught on fire, the time the landing gear got stuck, and of course, the many times that students would have crashed the plane if not for Beth’s intervention. And her adventures didn't stop there.

From mechanical failures to ice storms, from sexism to 100-year floods, Beth's skill and determination carried her through. Her passion and love for flying shine on every page, as she describes her adventures and the fun she had.

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to follow your dreams despite all obstacles and build a career doing what you love, this memoir will captivate and inspire you.

A Woman's Place is in the Cockpit offers a fascinating glimpse into what it was like for a stay-at-home mom in the 1970s to enter the male-dominated world of aviation, learn to fly, become a flight instructor, open her own successful flight school... and sometimes even save the day.
