Realize Your Dream to Become a Private Pilot
As someone who has flown around the world and across the globe multiple times for vacations to exotic and far-off places and having flown in planes, helicopters, and small aircraft for probably 100K miles or more, I have often dreamed about becoming a pilot and really had no idea what was involved or where to start. This book provides an excellent guide and overview of becoming a private pilot and beyond. Without getting too technical, this guide breaks it down into easy-to-understand language. There are steps at the end of each chapter that will help you along the way in your journey. There is even a section on what is required to keep your license, as you have to do with having any professional license. I highly recommend this book if you want to know more about becoming a pilot.
