1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid this book if you are considering this sport...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, ignore the haters!, September 20, 2010
This review is from: Flying With Angels: Adventures in Microlights (Paperback)
I think flying with angels is an excellent book. The author starts with a warning and then explains how to avoid the crash that he went through. Very interesting and you can tell Mr. Rutland knows his microlights! 5 stars, check it out!
