Author Biography James Nixon retired as an A380 Captain after flying for thirty one years - longer than most of his cabin crew have been on the planet, and many of his First Officers. He has returned to a writers life in Melbourne Australia after living in the Middle East, where he was flying Airbuses with the same carrier for over ten years. Previously, he was flying a VIP Airbus A320 for a Saudi Sheikh based in Bahrain, and before that flew in Vietnam, England, Malta and Australia. As well as all the Airbus A380, he has flown Airbus A320, A321, A330 & A340; Boeing 727, Saab340 and Metroliner; as well as the usual squadron of general aviation aircraft. Prior to becoming a pilot he was a freelance writer and photographer and spent eight years running his own marketing and promotions business. Besides flying and writing, his other great love is photography. "Sleeping For Pilots & Cabin Crew" is his third book, he has just completed his fourth: "The Crash Of MH370".
