Q1. Do you think the gender split for pilots (and, for that matter, other male-dominated occupations in the aviation industry) will achieve parity any time in the foreseeable future? Or will these always be seen as mainly "jobs for the guys"?

Q2. 747 pilots tend to be very enthusiastic about the "Queen of the Skies". What, in your opinion, makes this such a well-loved plane among pilots (aside from its gorgeous appearance and iconic status among the general public)?

Q3. If you could fly any type of aircraft that ever existed, even just for a short distance, what would you choose?

Lastly, thank you for doing this AMA.

Mr Salvatore, what would you say is the greatest single challenge facing an author of fantasy fiction, as opposed to an author of "regular" novels?

What do you guys talk about to while away the time?

Do you have any strategies to alleviate boredom?

Is it tough to be in such close proximity with each other for so long?

This shouldn't have been downvoted, it's absolutely true. "Severe turbulence" has a specific meaning, and it's very rare and actually dangerous.

More here and here.
