| 520 | _a"Learning to Fly: A Practical Manual for Beginners" by Claude Grahame-White and Harry Harper is a practical guide to aviation aimed at novices, written in the early 20th century." This manual covers the knowledge and skills necessary for aspiring pilots to understand the foundations of flying, including the physical requirements, stages of tuition, and an overview of flying schools. The intent is to prepare beginners for both the practical and mental aspects of learning to fly, ultimately making the process safer and more accessible. "The opening of the book introduces readers to the authors' goal of guiding complete newcomers in their quest to learn aviation." It outlines the rapid advancements in flight instruction since the early days, where skepticism surrounded the idea of teaching individuals to fly. The authors discuss how flying has transitioned from an exclusive endeavor for a select few into an organized instructional process available to many. They highlight crucial factors for successful learning and emphasize the importance of selecting a suitable flying school, covering topics such as instruction methodologies, the significance of instructor temperament, and the evolving nature of aviation training methods.
