The Mircolight Syllabus, Weight Shift - Stow

This book, written by a converted 'GA' pilot, Chris Stow, who is now an instructor on, weight-shift Microlights, is intended for the student who wishes to pursue a course in learning to pilot a Microlight Aircraft.

This book is aimed mainly at weight-shift/flexwing students, but I have also included areas on 3-axis, to help both understand the differing adaptations to these aircraft. (The aircraft I have used in the illustrations in this book are based upon a generic flexwing and for reference a Thruster (tailwheel).

You will find as you progress through this book the laymen's terms disappear and more aviation terms, come into the fore, you will find a glossary of terms listed in the back of this book.

Flying with Angels - Rutland

The joy of microlighting opened up a whole new world for Kevin Rutland. After taking his first tentative leaps into the third dimension Kevin became obsessed with this exciting and relatively inexpensive form of aviation. His adventures and photography combine to provide a book that is not only informative and entertaining, but also provides a unique insight into what makes supposedly sane mere mortals launch themselves into the wild blue skies. These are not stories of super heroes, but of friends and neighbours, who have flown over the wall into another part of our wonderful world. If you ever had any inclination to take to the air, or wondered why others are compelled to do so, then read on and enjoy this entertaining book.
