Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Name in front. Nice older book in good condition. Hardcover. English. See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Derek Piggott answers these from first-hand knowledge in this compelling autobiography. Already well known throughout the flying world, and author of three instructional books about gliding and soaring, he now describes for the first time his own wide-ranging (and often unique) experiences. He first flew at the age of four; as a schoolboy he helped sweep up after Sir Alan Cobham's Flying Circus and competed in model aircraft competitions. Unorthodox wartime experience led to extensive involvement in RAF and civil gliding, and whilst chief instructor at one of Britain's largest clubs, he was invited to fly for films; he gives a vivid account of modern club gliding, and of the difficulties, dangers and rewards of filming. Technical detail never obscures the lively narrative, but those who know about aircraft will appreciate its presence No pilot will read this book without learning from it: every reader, pilot or not, will share in the exhilarating but demanding business.
