Sinopsis
In this 2022 interview with Justine Willis Toms, long-haul commercial pilot Mark Vanhoenacker opens our vision to a more expansive landscape. He is a seasoned pilot and a brilliant lyrical writer about his journeys as experienced both from the air and on the ground where he chronicles for us some of the planet’s great cities. He is also a regular contributor to The New York Times and a columnist for the Financial Times. He says, “I get to so see so much of the urban world, in particular, and it's a joy for me to share it as best I can… Travel is a miracle and is something that would have amazed almost all humans who have ever lived to be able to travel the way some of us do now.” Vanhoenacker reminds us how magical it is to take to the sky. Mark Vanhoenacker is the author of Skyfaring: A Journey with a Pilot (Alfred Knopf 2015), How to Land a Plane (The Experiment; Illustrated edition, 2019) and Imagine a City: A Pilot’s Journey Across the Urban World (Alfred Knopf/Penguin Random House, 2022) Interview Date: 11/4/2022 Tags: Mark Vanhoenacker, piloting, William Stafford, The Way It Is, Pittsfield MA, Brazilia, the color blue, place lag, clouds, Aurora Borealis, solitude, Travel, Philosophy, Writing
