OK - I'll take the bait....

I bought that book during a particularly depressing part of of my training, read it, lost it, then read it again about 3 months ago (4 months after passing).

The first time I read it it definitely helped to crystallise my ideas about what, how and where I wanted to fly.

The second time I read it, I thought - 'what a load of tosh'. This is unfair, but it's because the book is aimed at slightly nervous PPLs who rarely venture beyond the circuit or county. I don't think you'll find many of those type of pilots here on Proon.

In summary- maybe worth reading during training, probably not worth buying as a PPL unless you are very out of touch, or nervous (or maybe learnt in the USA )
