Book Description
Aviation writer/photographer and pilot Bill Cox has been in love with airplanes since the age of 13, though he refuses to admit how long ago that was. He survived his first airplane ride as a Civil Air Patrol Cadet in a Piper J-3 Cub on skis out of Merrill Field in Anchorage, Alaska, sometime in the middle of the last century. Over the past 60 years of flying, he has logged about 15,000 hours. My Sky chronicles his travels all over the world.

Fly an airplane at a set attitude, airspeed, and power setting, and it does precisely what it is supposed to—every time.

For aircraft not included in this list, the book provides exact cockpit procedures for nailing down the numbers for any other light airplane.
