Produktbeschreibung

Described by Pilot magazine in 2011 as 'Inspirational ... one of the best books ever written about flying'. Join the real Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines as they compete in the Round Britain race. Woodward's warm, wry account of learning to fly will lift hearts everywhere. BBC2 documentary based on the book - 23 January 2012.

Antony Woodward hated flying. It was, quite simply, not his thing. But when his flatmate Richard returned from Africa with a pilot's licence - and instant sex appeal - there was only one option ...

Eccentric characters, recalcitrant lawnmower engines, lousy weather, unhappy landings - can these really be the things to get a relationship off the ground? As Woodward's passage from man to airman hits ever-increasing turbulence, he finds himself embarked on a jaunt of self-discovery that will strike a chord with many a disaffected urbanite.
