Description
Final Approach charts the complex relationship between Mark Blackburn and his father, who embodied the excesses of the 1970s jetset. Growing up amidst this world of luxury and travel, Blackburn struggled to break free from his father's influence.
This memoir is intertwined with a love of planespotting, reflecting the author's desire for freedom and escape. With its unique blend of personal narrative and travelogue, Final Approach offers a fascinating glimpse into one man's journey towards independence.
