I bought this edition for my son. However, when I was a flight instructor, I studied this book so that I would have a better understanding and could do a better job of explaining aerodynamics to my students. My copy is more than thirty years old, and I always considered this book to be my flying bible.

While the equations may seem, at first to be way, way over a lot of peoples’ heads, if the reader takes the time to look at the equation, and what each part stands for, you will better understand what happens when your airplane flies through the air. For me, it was interesting to take note that the equation for lift is almost identical to the equation for drag concerning density of air, velocity and etc… By studying you may learn and understand why an airplane flies slower due to induced drag; how the direction of lift changes from mostly up to up and to the opposite direction of flight.

The effects of wind velocity changes, such as when crossing a wind shear, why does the airplane tend to gain or lose altitude. I was able to do a better job of teaching crosswind operations as well. The dynamics of a spin; why does an airplane spin.

While certainly, most "learn to fly" books broach the subject, there is no real depth, leaving students to think in the most simple terms concerning flight rather than a more complete understanding.

Do you need this book to become a private pilot? No. But, if you are want to know more, you need this book. I do believe that if you are an instructor, you need this book.

This book is a classic about aerodynamics knowledge. I am excited for getting one. I will be able to improve my background and knowledge about so important issue. It’s basic to get good performance and skills flying. Know the magic consecuences about the mistery of flying…thak you.

Best book I have ever read on aerodynamics for pilots.

Folks, This Ain’t Normal

Review

“Joel Salatin might seem like a vision of our agrarian past, but in fact, he’s distinctly modern, looking beyond the conventional toward a new “normal” based on community, ecology, and flavor, too. Salatin’s book is as practical as it is reflective; as necessary as it is radical.”Dan Barber, Chef/Co-Owner, Blue Hill and Blue Hill at Stone Barns

“Joel Salatin is a down-to-earth 21st century pioneer, one of those rare contrarian thinkers whose words and work have the power to transform the way a generation thinks. ‘Folks This Ain’t Normal’ will help seed the new nature movement and inspire people everywhere — especially young people in need of some practical hope. And here’s the bonus: The book is great fun to read. Sacred cows beware.”Richard Louv, author of “The Nature Principle” and “Last Child in the Woods”

“In Folks, This Ain’t Normal, Joel Salatin says it’s high time we stopped taking our industrialized food system as a given and instead consider local, sustainable food production as the norm. Good plan. Whether or not you agree with his contention that we would be better off if the government got out of food regulation, his ideas are compellingly written, fun to read, and well worth pondering.”Marion Nestle, Dept. of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health, NYU, and author, Food Politics

“Chances are slim you’ll agree with everything in this wonderfully cranky book. But I’m almost certain you’ll agree that Joel Salatin has earned the right to his convictions, and that they shine a powerful light on some of the paths out of the predicament we find ourselves in as a world.”Bill McKibben, author Eaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet

“Joel…is one of the most creative, productive and sustainable farmers working in America today…His message is that we eaters can change the world, one meal at a time.”Michael Pollan, in the introduction to Holy Cows and Hog Heaven: The Food Buyer’s Guide to Farm Friendly Food

Why do I love this book? There are so many reasons. It’s a book I was not able to put down or stop thinking about. It made me feel frustrated and hopeful all at the same time. It is funny and insightful. I care about my food and how it is raised. I want my kids to be allergy free and play in the woods. I want to curl up next to a real wood fire after a long day of working hard and sweating. I want to eat eggs from happy chickens that I raise free from corn and gmo soy. This book makes me feel like those things are possible. It was a paradigm shift for me. I hope a lot of people read this book and take up the fight for the small local farm.

Yes folks, we have decided to give this book to everyone on our Christmas list this year. I am reading this book on my Droid in Kindle format and can not put it down. I have known Joel personally for more than a dozen years and he was one of my mentors as I started my own pastured poultry farm coming from a CAFO poultry background. So needless to say, there is little in this book which is new to me but he tells it in style and in a way which is so much more effective than any way I could say it. But for the average person this book will be a different perspective. What he says has great universal truth, from how to raise children to how to heal the planet.

For me, my great hope is that this book does become number ONE on the NY Times best seller list for the more people who read this book, then a better world we will have. This book is a must read by all who want a better world.

Joel Salatin is a genius, and in my opinion, a hero of the people. If you have an inkling of doubt about mainstream food sources or want to know if "organic" is really the way to go, you will get a LOT from this book. There is so much about the current mainstream food ideology that are fabrications of mega food corporations and government agencies. The current system is in place to crank out huge profits, not to promote health and nutrition for citizens. I have read several books on food issues, and this one ranks in the top 2-3 for me. It definitely adds a new angle that cannot be found in other literature on the subject (namely more detail on food policy/legislation, which blew my mind!). More people need to be enlightened to the honest, historically-supported truth that America’s approach to food AIN’T NORMAL. Amen, Joel! Please read/listen to this book, and then share it with a friend!
