| Plot Summaries:
| Sahada Kenji achieves his life long dream by becoming an airline pilot. His very first assignment is as copilot on a flight to Los Angeles with Captain Akiyama, also known as 'evil demon Akiyama'. His friends who have flown with Akiyama tell tales of being so miserable that they burst into tears. All his friends feel sorry for him.
Much to his surprise, Sahada discovers, during that long initial flight, that that he has much in common with Akiyama - they fly because they love flying, and Sahada's determination to do everything, and do it well, impresses Akiyama.
In LA, Sahada asks Akiyama to teach him everything, and Akiyama takes him up on the request. Snicker. Sahada discovers the secret reason Akiyama's an airline pilot and not a fighter pilot, and his hidden gentle side, but finds he much prefers the demanding, difficult to please, hard to keep up with, sharp witted Akiyama. - reviewed by MEverdark

| Remarks:
| Airline pilots! In uniform!
This is a cute, light weight story. Just the thing for light summer reading. There's not a lot of sex, though, and none with their uniforms on. Character designs are good - semes have these delicious, sardonic, narrow eyes. Backgrounds, except for airplanes and airports, are somewhat sparse.
There is an unrelated short story at the end entitled 'To Embrace You in the Cornfields', which is a very funny comedy about two honest, hapless kidnappers, their very competent, young kidnap victim, and a lesson about the value of love.
