About this title

Synopsis

Since it first appeared in 1939, "I Learned About Flying From That" has consistently been one of the most popular features of Flying Magazine. These firsthand accounts of aviation disasters, from the pilots who lived to tell their tales, recreate some of the most exciting airborne moments ever. The fascinating stories are at times harrowing, humorous, embarrassing, and thrilling, but the one thing they always are is informative. For this first collection of these columns published since 1993, the editors of Flying Magazine have collected the most interesting and educational stories available about flying and aviation today. Arranged by topic, and covering everything from disastrous weather to malfunctioning equipment, these stories are tales of extremely hard-earned wisdom.
