Paperback Edition Also Available
Organizers of non-profit programs that promote the growth of
General Aviation and Sport Aviation by giving free rides to
non-pilots can request coupons that allow participants to download
a full complete version of the highly rated eBook (normally priced
at $8.99).
The process to provide the ebook is simple and can be completed
entirely through email. Event organizers can simply send an e-mail at
least 5 days before an event requesting a coupon set. A coupon will
be generated and returned in .pdf format that can be printed and
given to each Young Eagle family. The coupon contains the simple
instructions and coupon code for the free book. The coupon expires
2-3 days after the event to prevent the coupon code from being
irresponsibly distributed through Internet sharing.
The paperback edition of "You Can Afford To Be A Pilot" is
available in paperback for $10.99 US at Amazon.com and for $8.99 in
eBook form. By purchasing the paperback or eBook you will be
supporting the continued free distribution of the eBook to EAA
Young Eagles and other non-profit promotions that aim to create
more pilots and raise awareness of the Light Sport hobby.
The new book from CFI/CTT Timothy O'Connor aims to not only
bring more candidates into aviation but more importantly to give
these students the knowledge and tools they need to beat the odds
and successfully become a certified pilot. Entering a student pilot
program can seem daunting, and without a good guide many people
never get past an introductory ride. You Can Afford To Be A Pilot
gives students the knowledge and power to break down the most
common barriers to completing a pilot certificate including
expense, poor instructors, lack of procedural support and more.
Unlike any other book or publication, "You Can Afford to be a
Pilot" takes the reader on a complete tour of the pilot training
and certification process from the perspectives of the instructor,
examiner and student from the point of initial interest through
becoming a fully certified pilot.
This new book also aims to open the door to flight for those who
thought they could not afford to fly. The fact is flying can be
done by people of middle-class means and this book is a convincing
guide to make the dream of flight attainable.
