All Because Of The Mistake

All because of the mistake was not an easy read for me. The narrators constant stream of consciousness mad it a little hard to understand exactly what was going on. I also think that everyone can relate to this story because everyone make mistakes, maybe not as life threatening as forgetting to lift the plane flaps but we do. I can also remember a few times when I'm trying to do something new and someone like Bruno is there to help you but doesn't really do much but in the end the lesson is stronger. I never really thought about the stress that a pilot would have because usually I'm too worried about the plane crashing when I'm on it that the pilots fear would never cross my mind.I love the part where he compares the first time flying a plane to the first time he had sex because i remember how nervous i was and it gives me a better idea of how scared he was, also I'm sure it brings the same relief and satisfaction at the end of it all. I liked All Because Of The Mistake because it takes you into the mind of the pilot and i could feel the tension and insecurity in the narrators voice or words i guess. I think not only was the main character looking for signs from Bruno but really anything that could tell him something was wrong and what the future to come may be.
