Aviation (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Aviation

Several courses are open to one who writes a book about flying. One can make it technical, for instance, and so appeal merely to the experts. In this way, one caters for a very limited audience. Or one can make it semi-technical, and endeavour to appeal to experts and to the ordinary individual as well. This I do not regard as a very happy compromise. Or the book may be made frankly non-technical, and so bid for the interest of all those readers who desire a knowledge of flying, but who do not wish any large amount of technical information. From this third point of View I have written my book; and I hope that just the ordinary individual, who does not want to be bothered by stacks of facts and rows of figures, will find something in its pages that will really interest him. If he does, I shall feel that my work has been amply repaid. Claude grahame-white.
