David Bedard is the best thing to happen to aviation since the Piper Cub! Well, not quite. But one thing s for sure-as a writer, he s done more for aviation humor than Richard Bach ever did for seagulls. For most of the past four years, Bedard s much-loved column, "Blue Confessions," has entertained Private Pilot readers with its biting satire and outrageously funny perspective on flying. Now, loyal fans can kill time waiting for their next issue of P. P. by relishing TAB s new, exclusive collection of classic "Blue Confessions." All of Bedard s finest work is here: "No Respect," where being his own father s flight instructor forces Rayban Becker to reevaluate his choice of careers; "Say Ahhhhhh," in which Meygaud the Olympic Medalist endures the horrors of his first real flight physical; "Flying Tigers," a thoughtful and provocative essay on the hazards of carrying feline cargo; "You Turn My Whole World Upside Down," the touching story of a dashing young pilot, his lovely passenger-wife, and a throttle that is mistaken for a window crank; and many, many more. Not interested in aviation? Doesn t matter. Blue Confessions isn t just about aviation, even though all the people Bedard writes about happen to be pilots. Really it s about life, and it s just plain funny stuff-packed with unpretentious, side-splitting hyperbole and ironic twists of fate reminiscent of such great American humorists as Patrick McManus and Roy Blount, Jr.
