Here's a tip for EVERYONE: Type in www.worldcat.org in your browser's address line, type in the name of the book you want to borrow through inter-library loan (free, from any library in the world, even Russia), next page will list variations of that book in a list, starting with latest editions, then earlier. click on one that is close to what you want; at resulting web page, scroll down slightly to the "Find a copy in the library" section and enter your zip code in the "enter your location" line and click "Find libraries" - the list starting just below this line is now re-ordered to show libraries having the book sorted in order of "closest to you" (shows mileage to library) then next closest, etc.
. . . Then, be sure to scroll down slightly to the next section of that page, "Buyit" and you will find this particular book by Osinga currently costs $128 from Amazon - a real incentive to call your local library and arrange FREE interlibrary loan of the book.
Back on to an "RV-List" topic, anyone want to hear about my errors in cross wind takeoff techniques? - and resulting lessons learned from snap rolling my former RV-6 (tail dragger & tip up canopy) on liftoff on takeoff in a strong crosswind and landing upside down on the centerline, sliding off the runway upside down and crawling out from under? If you klnow how to search the NTSB reports look at 5 April 2010, event at Muleshoe, Texas, airport.

| Oh Wow! That hurts. I'm curious. What do you think your errors were???
My educational experience was a 1/2 outside loop on a landing in my Pitts, 16LW. Curtis Pitts said 'Never learned how to land it, did you.' ...... after my 13 years of scratch free flying.
