- More about Lessons from a High Flyer: Airline Visionary and Advocate for the Arts
Lessons from a High Flyer is the inspiring story of Michael Bishop, the boy who loved airplanes so much he built an airline. Unhappy at public school, and passing only one exam in his life, he went on to become a major figure in global air travel, chair a national broadcaster, be honoured with a knighthood and elevated to the House of Lords. Along the way he suffered disaster - showing intuitive empathy in responding to a horrific air accident - and battled hard against the might of the establishment major airlines. He went into politics, championed human rights, donated millions to the arts and charities through the Michael Bishop Foundation, and meticulously restored two stately homes. His is a tale, told modestly with grace and humour, that truly lifts the heart and shows that there is really no such thing as impossible.
