Recommendation:

Learning what it takes to become a pilot can be an intimidating and confusing process. Most wanting to learn about flying go to the local airport to ask someone about learning to fly but find the first contact at the flight school is not very helpful. One place you can find the answers to your questions about flying are through reading the book “You Can Be A Pilot!”.

Our guest today, Chris Findlay, has done a wonderful job of answering the most common questions about learning to fly. His book “You Can Be A Pilot! : Answers to 25 Questions About Learning To Fly” is a great place to start in your journey to becoming a pilot.

Before you go to the airport I highly recommend your reading this book. It will answer all of your questions about learning to fly and will teach you a few things you might not have expected.
