Hi..This book arrived in perfect condition from the seller. I think it is a good source of information for the new student pilot, or a source of enjoyment for wannabees like me. I actually build and fly radio controlled aircraft, so understanding more about flight is a plus. Also from time to time I go up with friends who have their license and its fun to actually know what is going on and how things work.
Must have for all pilots

It is a must have for all pilots of all skill levels, weather you want to study for your test, or just brush-up on your skills.

This is a good book to use during your flight training, and after as you work on more advanced ratings. This book has simple explenation on to preform all the maneuvers you will pretty much eer need for any checkride. That's what i got out of it the most. It also goes into flying mulit and seaplanes, both of which are prety good sections with good info. If you are looking for a book full of aerodynamics and how planes fly this is not it however. This book is simply put, Practical. If you are just starting out in flying, BUY THIS BOOK, as it you will want to refer to it a lot. A must have for any student pilot or teahcer.
