Flying Start

{detailed description}`If you have been thinking of learning to fly, but have been daunted by the belief that it is too complicated, read this book first. You will change your mind.'
So writes the Chief Instructor of one of the largest air training schools in Britain in his foreword. But Flying Start will also prove fascinating reading for every air passenger who has wanted to know more about his journey than the title of the in-flight movie.
Mary Francis wrote this beginner's guide to flying with her own experience of attaining her Private Pilot's Licence fresh in her mind. She knows what problems face the novice. She explains not only how to fly an aircraft, but why it flies. She discusses the possible ways of making a start, and the cost (it's cheaper than you may think).
She covers safety, navigation, weather, use of radio . . . it's the Alpha to Zulu of private flying.
Flying Start is a completely revised and up-dated edition of A Beginner's Guide to Flying, first published in 1969.
