Spam fritters are delicious, classic camping food. Slice the spam about ½" thick, coat in a batter with lots of salt and pepper in it, and fry. Unlike BEagle, I was a grammar school boy, and these used to be served for lunch occasionally.

By the way, although Beagle's correct, you'd be well advised also to read up on micro-meteorology (weather as it affects very low wing loading aeroplanes), microlight air-law (air-law is it affects permits to fly), and 2-stroke engines. Brian Cosgrove's "Microlight Pilot's handbook" is generally reckoned to be the best book covering the lot.
