Summary: How to do it correctly
Review: After reading Mr. Loves book, as a Student Pilot, I find it one of the most practical and well written texts on the art of making a proper landing. Mr. Loves experience as a pilot for a parachute troop has been invaluable and passing on this knowledge to us 'up and coming' is greatly appreciated. I would assume that this text would also be a great review for those of you who are switching from a tail dragger to tricycle or vice versa. Invaluable in my library.

Summary: Just another book on flying
Review: This book serves it's intended purpose well. It covers the established procedures for takeoffs and landings in the differing situations. I believe the book is of more value to a student pilot rather than a private pilot who flys on a regular basis. When a student pilot, what served me well was the solo practice along with the Jeppesen, "Private Pilot Manuevers" book which presents full color illustrations. A book can only go so far as to the process while the true method to improve takeoffs and Landings is by actual practice.

Summary: Just another book on flying
Review: Unfortunately, I was re-reading "Stick and Rudder" at the time this book arrived. What a contrast. OK, BT&L has a lot of modern detail that the classic lacks, but Michael Love has no knack for teaching the art of flying. Just another book.
