From Word of Sport:

The official manual of the world-renowned British Gliding Association, this is a highly authoritative technical guide. It begins with the basics of physics as they relate to flight and a brief historical overview of flying and moves on to an examination of aerodynamics, variometers, cross-country flying and much else.

From the Publisher:

Aimed at all pilots and instructors, this user-friendly guide covers a comprehensive range of key subjects. Essential information is highlighted, together with the less critical material, providing an authoritative and cutting-edge resource which can be studied or dipped into as required.

It's A Fact!

At 6 foot 7 Kevin Francis was the tallest player in the football league. And so said every newspaper article and programme feature written about him throughout his career. He's now a long distance lorry driver.
