A Rare Gem,
By
This review is from: A Sky of My Own. (Hardcover)
I think this book is one of the most underappreciated books on flying I've ever read. I picked it up on a discount book table in the early '70's and have read it no less that 5 times since then. As a lifelong pilot, I've read all the classics: Gann, St. Exupery, Bach, etc. Berheim's narrative of her flying life in the '50's is their equal. The book doesn't tell you, but Bernheim and her husband were renowned scientists who both made breakthrough discoveries in biochemistry. They were remarkable people.

Lady pilot learns and lives in little planes,
By
This review is from: A Sky of My Own. (Hardcover)
Simple honest words from a lady who started scared of her husband's flying, and ended up as an instructor. From the 1950's, when married biochemistry teachers didn't hang out at the local airport and fly little planes, comes a book of what it feels like to fly. Wonderfully written, you are in the cockpit for spins, solo, exams and long flights. The private terror, the open joy. Absorbing reading. Makes me miss a quiet airport with an old instructor. Makes me miss flying.
