Customer Reviews

It does the job very well

It was the first book I read about homebuilts, and it got me hooked. Bowers writes very well, with a terse, precise but unassuming style.Being an aircraft designer himself, he knows what is he talking about and he provides pros and cons of his arguments.The listing of designs he recommends -as well as the many photos included- should be totally outdated by know, but a new editionwould take care of that.There is also an intriguing and tempting chapter where Bowers easily leads the reader over the process of designing a homebuilt of his own.As a primer to the subject, it certainly does the job; it deserves a reprint.
