Description
Compiling questions and answers from a popular monthly aviation column into one source, this book is full of fun and educational questions concerning aviation topics. Myths and misconceptions are discussed in a simple format that allows pilots to stretch their minds to come up with answers to the questions and then flip to a separate part of the book to review the correct reply. Organised into sections highlighting questions concerning history, navigation, weather, procedures, and more, this book is great for any true aviation buff.
