John Casperson, an aviation enthusiast and lifelong employee of the commercial aviation industry, has completed his new audiobook "Yougottabekiddinme! Memoirs of an Airline Gate Agent": an uproarious assortment of the author's personal stories about airline life.
"'Yougottabekiddinme!' is not something from whole cloth," states Casperson. "This, to the best of my knowledge, is the first book about airline life that tells it like it is. The accounts related herein are from the best of my memory. Names, places, and airline references are as accurate as they can be and may or may not have been changed directly or indirectly to protect people who may not wish to be named. One sees this type of disclaimer appended to television shows, movies, and types of literature to protect from litigation. This disclaimer does not however change the essence of the stories, who we are and how we fly, and what a wonderful thrill it was to be a part of it all. In the early seventies, a colleague of mine named Vickie observed, 'We use airplanes like people use taxis.' I am here to tell you truth is stranger than fiction, so fasten your seat belts; I am about to prove it!"
Published by Audiobook Network, author John Casperson's new audiobook is a sidesplitting and heartfelt look at what it takes to make it as a commercial aviation employee. Told with the right amount of wit and sincerity, each story serves as a tribute to those who have worked in the industry and the sometimes-absurd scenarios they find themselves in.
Listeners can purchase the audiobook edition of "Yougottabekiddinme! Memoirs of an Airline Gate Agent" by John Casperson through Audible, the Apple iTunes Store, or Amazon.
Audiobooks are the fastest-growing segment in the digital publishing industry. According to The Infinite Dial 2019, 50% of Americans age 12 and older have listened to an audiobook. This huge growth can be partly attributed to increased listening in cars, which surpassed the home as the #1 audiobook listening location in the 2019 survey. Smart speaker proliferation also bodes well for future listening growth and more mainstream listening.
