  The book could have been called
  “A Taste of Leslie”
  For all of us that have been touched by her presence in the cockpit
  we are the lucky ones...
  For those of you exploring and participating in Aviation this is a must read....

  Up There. This book is a complete revelation to
  those of us who have flown with her or just known her. Everyone knew that her flying was her life. But she never spoke of the places she
  had been, the danger she had faced.
  How her humour always won through.
  Hilarious, adventurous,
  and all-around Larrikin. Good read Great laugh.
  recommend to aspiring pilots.

  Those that think there may be a little fiction in this book have not met this inspirational lady. I had the privilege of her guidance during my preparation for my CPL and subsequent flight test.
  The remarkable stories and lessons from this manuscript are delivered in the author’s style. With the humour, clarity and hope of her personality. You may not personally know her but rest assured by the end of this book you will be left with the insight of her lust for flying and life.
  Enjoy!

  up there by Lesley Crowther Scott
  A great book by one of the first woman Bush pilots from Australia. A true story about her adventures flying planes in many countries in sometimes very perilous conditions. Interesting anecdotes about people, cultures and how to interact with different and sometimes difficult personalities. All the while her positivity and sense of humour holds fast. She is the person I would want leading my flying class lessons.
  Fair, no bullshit and professional.
  Cheers

  I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Leslie's exciting life as a woman pilot with it's ups and downs. So wonderful to have visited so many countries and have adventures that made my spine tingle. Also much good advice to future pilots that even a laywoman such as myself can understand. Thankyou Leslie for sharing your experience "Up there".
