Good read
by Anton from Chicago IL USA
Pros: Easy read. Flow is good.
Cons: None
Review: The book is well written and specifically aimed at the wanna-be professional pilot transition to turbine engines, who has no previous training in this area. It has been helpful to me in understanding turbine basics, and everything that goes with flying bigger airplanes higher and faster. I would recommend this book.
