5.0 out of 5 stars Learning Hang Gliding Skills for Beginner to Intermediate Pi, July 12, 2000

Gustav Fischnaller (the Cairnwell Hanggliding Centre, Spittal of Glenshee by BLAIRGOWRIE, PERTHSHIRE United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hang Gliding Training Manual: Learning Hang Gliding Skills for Beginner to Intermediate Pilots (Paperback)

The Hanggliding training manual is an absolute must for the beginner. I started Hanggliding in 1974, and got his books as a birthday present a few years after.Then I started to learn and understand the whole concept of the principals of flight much better. The illustartions are great I use them in my teaching the sport of Hanggliding, and the articles are ease to follow. So after a days out with the school go and get yourself lost in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent hang gliding book, April 28, 2004

Bo Bo (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hang Gliding Training Manual: Learning Hang Gliding Skills for Beginner to Intermediate Pilots (Paperback)

An excellent book: Well written, loaded with diagrams and information, great for the novice. I have spent good money on disappointing hang gliding books and videos. This manual, however, is worth every penny.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is a keeper..., January 3, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Hang Gliding Training Manual: Learning Hang Gliding Skills for Beginner to Intermediate Pilots (Paperback)

I've bought other HG books & returned or trashed them. The cheaper books are way to basic. Dennis & his wife made this manual easy to read & understand plus the drawings are right to the point. Even if you never hang glide, but are interested in it, this is the book to buy.
