![]() Aviation Disasters: The World's Major Civil Airliner Crashes Since 1950 $44.95 David Gero has covered many of the 1000's of Air Incdents in this book. I would have liked to have seen more photos or Drawings relating to individual incidents. The more recents incidents where much information is available today, I thought, were somewhat vague, felt they could have been elaborated on. However an excellent reference text. Recommend for an collection. ![]() Vortex Extreme Accessory Kit Incl Wing, Battery & Tail Set - Huge Savings $29.95 Packed with all the spare parts you need this Vortex Extreme accessory bundle will ensure you get back in the air even after the worst of crashes. It even includes and extra battery so you can do more flying. This bundle is highly recommended for beginners and novice pilots. Unfortunately, a major part of learning to fly is crashing and although the Vortex Extreme is very durable it can be broken. This bundle comes with the main parts that could get damaged in a crash. The Vortex Extreme RC Airplane Accessory Kit Includes: * 1 x Vortex Extreme Main wing * 1 x Vortex Extreme Complete tail assembly * 1 x Vortex Extreme 8.4 volt 900mah NiMH battery * 1 x Vortex Extreme Tail boom ![]() Crazy for the Storm: A Memoir of Survival $25.99 I had high expectations of this book given it's 4 star Amazon rating. While the fact that Norman Ollestad made it out alive is a remarkable story, the writing in this book was very disappointing. I really could never got a valid picture in my mind of the situations he was describing. It just failed me in that sense. Partly becasue he used too much vocabulary that the average non-surfer/nonskier would never understand. I also didn't care for the constant flipping back and forth between the past and present. It made me feel like this was done because the actual tale would never warrant a full book and they had to pad it. 4 stars it ain't! |
