Flight school
Nick Barnard
- Reading
- Browse the contents together and let the child choose a topic; pause over unfamiliar aviation terms and distinguish learning about flying from practical instruction.
- Themes
- How flight works: The book addresses how flight works; the detail of how it is developed remains unclear. The book is presented as informational coverage of aviation, though the depth and accuracy of individual explanations cannot be assessed here.
- Rules and piloting: These piloting subjects appear in the contents, but the book’s treatment of requirements and safety is not described. The topics may prompt questions about what pilots need to learn, but no particular stance or level of practical instruction is established.
- Worth knowing
- The contents include flying in the dark and stunt flying alongside safe landing and flying rules; how these subjects are presented is not clear.
