Book Review: An outstanding easy to read introduction to flying planes
Summary: 5 Stars
Written many years ago with a style that really shows a unique understanding of how to convey complex information in a simple manner. If you are just starting off flying small planes this is the text for you because you will gain a real understanding of how things work. As a 150 hour PPL(A) this has been a unique book I'll use on many occaisions.
