Helpful for someone not a pilot
Preparing for first time "piloting experience" at 71, I found this book helpful in understanding some aviation basics. I believe it is meant for use in a more technical manner but I was able to review some physics, gain some terminology and see plane parts and how they relate to flight.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
