His book is the ideal handbook for student pilots, covering such topics as why people fly, the process of learning to fly -- including money matters, health requirements, time commitments, school and instructor options, and the tests involved -- and the privileges and limitations associated with a pilot certificate. There is no aspect of aviation that doesn't require at least some understanding of another aviation topic. The airplane is covered with an orientation to the controls and instrumentation, and showing which maneuvers students will be flying throughout the pilot curriculum. This book makes the ideal first read for anyone who intends to start flight training; it should be considered "Flight Training 101."Diamond does not assume any aviation knowledge on the part
A. Hicks said Can't stop reading.. This is a great book loaded with information. This first few chapters makes you ask yourself the question is flying for you. He will go over the risks, costs, and types of questions someone looking into learning to fly is thinking. The author uses the 'She' pronoun for everything related to a flyer which is interesting, this might be because his favorite flight instructor was infact a woman, or this might be to be. Book review Matt Grigoryan Great illustrations! Useful info written with a sense of humor very refreshing for manuals.
