Reviews for Flying and Learning: Basics for Every Pilot
Here is some of what the best in the business have said:
Wolfgang Langewiesche, author of the timeless flight training book Stick and
Rudder, chose to write the foreword for Flying and Learning: Basics for Every
Pilot.
The first sentence of the foreword reads, "What I liked in this book was the
emphasis on very simple basic things."
William K. (Bill) Kershner, author of many well-known flight training books
says: "Mr. Heitman has done a yeoman’s job with his book. It belongs in the
library of every pilot, right next to all my books."
Stephen Coonts, author of numerous best-selling action/adventure novels, as
well as an accomplished pilot himself, says: "Heitman’s book is a well-written,
easy-to-read explanation of the basic information every pilot should know. I
recommend it highly."
Dolph Overton, a Korean War F-86 ace proclaimed, "Extraordinary in its
simplicity. One of the best ever written."
Barrie Davis, a World War II, P-51 Mustang ace stated, "Finally…a solid primer
written to make you a better, safer pilot."
Here is what the magazine reviewers have said:
"This book is beneficial for student pilots and primary instructors alike."

hopeful."
Sport Aviation, October 1998
"From the first few pages I was hooked by Heitman's very thorough,
picky preflight procedure, with answers to why we check what we check.
The tips I picked up were well worth the $15.00 price."
Louise C. Anderson – The Marlboro Antiquer (the newsletter for EAA Chapter
673), August 1999
"(Heitman's) book provides an invaluable resource for a studet pilot or any
other
pilot who feels the need for a review of the fundamental aspects of flying."
