| For
those who have always dreamed about
flying but didn't know where or how to
start — now they can take that
long-awaited first step with some
guidance. You Can Fly! authors
Greg Brown and Laurel Lippert write to
those who are considering flight
training, specifically to answer
frequently asked questions about it, and
at the same time entice more people into
exploring general aviation. The
authors in a welcoming way, along with
gorgeous photographs by Tom Lippert,
reveal to the non-flying public the
romance and adventures found in flying
by centering their focus on the many
joys and benefits of flight, and leaving
out the dull "FAA verbiage" found in
other learn-to-fly books. You Can
Fly! has detailed sidebars
throughout the book that will intrigue
aspiring pilots with questions like,
"What should I expect on my first
flight?" and "How do you read an
altimeter?" All of these questions are
explained with brevity, complemented by
easy-to-grasp and colorful
illustrations. With illustrations from
front to back, and beautiful photographs
worthy of an expensive coffee-table book
throughout, You Can Fly! is the
perfect addition to a flight school
library, FBO, or aviation enthusiast's
collection. This is truly a
one-of-a-kind, fun, exciting and
informative book on flying for
prospective pilots.

instruction, and expounding on the
