5.0 / 5.01 ReviewWould You Recommend?Yes (1)Would You Recommend?YesInformative interesting readRichard Collins is a real treasure to General Aviation (GA)! He is a pilot who has experienced the many aspects of aviation - GA and otherwise. His writings are unique because they ask questions others have not thought of. He then gives a very good analysis. He is a treasure to GA because he often focuses unsentimentally on GA safety.
He also nods towards the fun part of aviation. One of my favorite chapters was "Retractable Singles: The Good, the Fad, and the Ugly." It is special because he tells what the fans of each type of airplane love about their aircraft. Air Facts on line also had pictures of the various aircraft and reader's comments which add to the article.
Richard L. Collins even hits on the loving companionship side of aviation. His descriptions of his wife and father were both interesting and moving.
