There are tons of flying books out there, some good, some not so good. I had the pleasure of reading “Brian’s Flying Book” by Brian Lansburgh recently, and I found myself nodding my head at a series of unconventional, even downright heretical, notions about flying and flight instructing. Does that make me a heretic too?
This fast read from a former air-show clown, full of delightful anecdotes and funny stories, goes right to the heart of how to become a safer pilot—mastering stick and rudder skills well beyond what you’re taught to earn your pilot certificate. Sound familiar? I got so excited after reading Brian’s book, I immediately signed up for some lessons with him.
