When I started taking lessons, a friend loaned me his copy of Stick and Rudder. It almost drove me crazy, those drawings of how the airport should look while you are in the pattern. It wasn't till long afterward that I realized that old Wolfgang wanted me to enter on the base leg. May not be an inaccuracy, but sure as heck outdated, and very misleading. I don't think you are doing a student pilot any favors by giving him this book. I suspect it's something for oldtimers to smile about ("Ah, the good old days!"). all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's Forum www.warbirdforum.com Piper Cub Forum www.pipercubforum.com Viva Bush! www.vivabush.org
