Twelve Flights to Strengthen Inner Airmanship |
|
There is no way to become a craftsman of the cockpit from just reading words. It's a lifetime of flying, discipline, and grace. It's going from young pilot determined oak, to old pilot flowing willow. It's connecting timeless wisdom with modern psychology through the stick and the rudder—and finding what works for you. For only then can flying become an art, an expression of your own self, in harmony with the nature of the machine and the nature of the sky. Our real challenge in flight lies not in the effort to cheat death, but rather in the effort to expand the envelope of life. Distilling Sam's push-pull, sometimes stern, sometimes zany, from-the-cuff, master-to-student method of flight instruction into words is tricky for me. However the twelve web pages linked here are a simple start. A work in progress. I'm connecting dots to see what picture emerges. |

An unending

In every man’s life there comes a moment that he—and only he—can answer. What a pity if the moment finds the man unprepared.— Winston Churchill |
