Learning to Fly in 21 Days

I am pleased to say that since publication I have received a number of e-mails from people who have bought the book. A selection are given below and if you wish to add your own comments please let me know at the address at the bottom of this page.

"I received Flying in 21 this morning and read it through whilst lounging in bed. I enjoyed it and found it very useful. It also scared the bejesus out of me as well."
Adrian Bligh.

"I have just finished reading your book Learning To Fly In 21 Days and found it most interesting. I have considered learning to fly for a number of years and have recently had a trial lesson at Redhill and was instantly hooked!"
Tom Burnip

"I ordered your book from Amazon and from the moment it arrived I couldn't put it down. It was exactly what I wanted, not an instruction manual but a book of real life experiences. I found it very informative, giving a great insight into what to expect. It also made me laugh a few times as I pictured the puzzled look on your face trying to understand the controllers instructions. I would thoroughly recommend the book to anyone thinking of taking their PPL and would also like to pass on my thanks to you for making me consider parting with a few thousand pounds"
John Haynes

"To cut a long story short, your book has inspired me to do my homework. Constantly through your book you mention, "something I wish I considered earlier" or "If only I had studied this before hand" and so on. I have worked hard to make sure I have learnt as much as can before actually getting in the aircraft. It may account for little as all that knowledge will be out the window as soon as I am holding the yoke. Nevertheless, I want to thank you for you sharing your experiences. I will certainly thinking of them when I take a hold of the yoke"
Iain in Melbourne Australia

"I thought I'd look into getting a pilots license. so I went to the library, and found a good book (and the only book they had) by some chap claiming how it could be done in 21 days. After reading the first page I couldn't put it down and finished it in a bit over an hour. GREAT BOOK!"
Warwick Anderson

Like you it was perhaps late in life to achieve my dream but your book provided inspiration, and then some. There is no other book on the market that compares to yours, written in such an honest way, with the pitfalls and high points. Thanks, I achieved my dream in the same way as you, but only after realising that it was not too late....I now have your other book "Flying in Florida" and will be exploring the Sunshine State!!
