PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION
Since the release of Book One in August 2009 I have received a huge amount of
positive feedback from aviators world wide, ranging from low time student
pilots to experienced airline captains. It seems I have been successful in filling a
glaring need for aerodynamic and flight technique information which is easily
understood and immediately applicable to the art of flying.
I have also been asked a number of questions by readers which have highlighted
some areas where the book could be expanded. So in this second edition I have
improved a number of explanations within the existing lessons and I have added
two new lessons, one on ‘Power’ and one on ‘Minimum Radius/Maximum Rate
Turning’ (and changed the cover picture for ease of identification). I have
retained the original forward, introduction and post script but have updated the
time references where applicable.
I am also aware that a number of sailplane pilots have read the first edition of
this book, so, primarily for their benefit, I have added a supplement discussing
the not so obvious differences between sailplanes and powered aeroplanes
including details on the derivation and use of ‘Polar Diagrams’. Of course most
powered aeroplane pilots can benefit from reading this supplement too.
Since there has been no advertising budget, mention of this book in flying
magazines and similar publications has been virtually non existent. Despite this I
am most gratified that referrals via word of mouth, emails and the internet have
‘spread the word’ amongst those aviators who have become dissatisfied with
their current training standards and want to learn about the things they should
have been taught. You can help distribution of this book by simply telling all of
your aviation colleagues about it.
I would also like to acknowledge the assistance I have received in the
production of this book from the following people:
Phil Astley, Ron Aitken, Chris Ward, Steve Care, Andrew Sooby, and the
hundreds of reader who have given me such positive feedback.
Thanks guys.

FORWARD
This is Book One of a series of books about how aeroplanes fly and how best to
fly them. They are the teachings of my father, Noel Kruse, who was the creator
and former Chief Flying Instructor of the Sydney Aerobatic School, a unique
and widely known advanced flying school which was based in Sydney Australia
for over two decades. These
books are intended for people who are planning to
learn to fly and for Student and Private Pilots who feel they have not been taught
about the subject in a way that enables them to really understand it. It will also
be useful to junior Flight Instructors who don’t really know enough about the
subject to teach others how to fly properly.
The style is personal because each chapter is based upon recordings of lessons
and briefings given by Noel to individuals and groups comprising this target
audience. Obviously some editing has been necessary to tidy the presentation,
but the rhetorical style remains untouched
.
The annexes to each lesson come
from printed material which was distributed for further reading at the end of
each lesson.
The books are not just a collection of theory lessons or flying technique lectures:
each lesson contains Noel’s philosophy of flying, his personal experiences and
opinions, including some ‘pointed’ comments on the current teaching methods
of most flying schools.
Noel first started ‘mucking around’ with aeroplanes in 1960, at the age of 16,
with a weekend job at the Royal Victorian Aero Club refueling and ‘swinging’
the propellers of their fleet of Chipmunks and Tiger Moths. A year later he
gained his Private Pilots Licence, and on his 18
th
birthday was accepted into the
Royal Australian Air Force as a cadet pilot, graduating as a fighter pilot trainee
18 months later. Noel first flew ‘supersonic’ at the age of 19 and just before his
20
th
birthday became an operational fighter pilot with number 76 Fighter
Squadron flying Sabre Jet fighters. As he gained flying experience, Noel became
an ‘A’ category fighter pilot during a tour of duty in South East Asia (which is
when I came along too). Upon returning to Australia Noel took up a position as
a Fighter and Bomber Test Pilot serving under the mentorship of Sir James
Rowland, one of the RAAF’s finest Test Pilots. (Sir James later went on to be
the Chief of the RAAF and the Governor of New South Wales and kept in touch
with Noel throughout this period.)
Noel’s last tour of duty as a fighter pilot was a two years ‘stint’ as a ‘Fighter
Combat Instructor’ (FCI), passing on what he had learned to the next generation
of fighter pilots. Then,
with the phasing out of the Sabre as an operational
aeroplane in 1971, Noel was ‘recycled’ into Tactical Transport Operations,
flying the DeHavilland ‘Caribou’, in which he gained invaluable experience
flying in mountainous terrain and operating in and out of high altitude and short
