Great essay in the Atlantic Monthly on flying

[aranpura]

This is an old essay (1993) by William Langewiesche focusing on the banked turn. I was surprised to read such a beautiful and interesting aviation story in a general literary magazine!

That story is included in his book, Inside The Sky. Get the book, it's a worthy read. Soft cover, about $12.

Speaking of which, I finished the PoA library copy of Inside the Sky a couple of days ago and it's now available. First choice is to hand it off at OSH.
