Customer Reviews

I can't wait .....

I am half way through the book. As a person who has always wanted to fly ( and who never seemed to be able to put the money and the ambition together in the same place ) I purchased this book in anticipation of tomorrow, for tomorrow is the day I am taking my first glider ride. The day after tomorrow I am scheduled to take my second ( and longer ) ride. Before, I was happy about what is about to happen. Now I am thrilled. I can't wait. Having read as much as I have of this book, I now know and understand so much more of what it is I am waiting for. I can't wait. I just can't wait. I will fly before I finish the book. And I think that is the perfect thing to do. I will be able to read the rest of the book from a new perspective - from experience. The book is so well written - the words are strangely calmimg and comforting - serene, almost. Thank you, Mr. Whelan. Thanks to you, I just can't wait.

Wonder intro to soaring and sailplanes

This is a great book on soaring and the history of sailplanes. Wonderful describtions about what you can expect on your first sailplane ride. No pictures though...my only complaint Experience the thrill of soaring for yourself!
