  1. Airspaces

    Author: David Pascoe and John Pascoe

    This book argues that 'airspace' – the transitional area between check-in desk and baggage carousel – must be regarded as a discrete destination on any map of our age.   Not so much about planes as the human interaction with flying and travel, from the architecture of airports, to films, historical events, advertising, disasters etc.

  6. Mike Busch on Engines

    Author: Mike Busch

    "The risk of engine failure is greatest when your engine is young, NOT when it's old. You should worry more about pediatrics than geriatrics." -Mike Busch A&P/IA Mike Busch on Engines expands the iconoclastic philosophy of his groundbreaking first book Manifesto to the design, operation, condition monitoring, maintenance and troubleshooting of piston aircraft engines.

  9. Bushplanes

    Author: Geza Szurovy

    As recently as the 1930s, vast portions of Alaska and Canada remained uncharted. The task of transporting explorers, aerial photographers, and cartographers to those remote regions fell into the hands of daring aviators and their Annotation. This colorful book examines the duties bushplanes help carry out around the world and the development of the greatest examples still plying the skies, including DeHavilland Beavers and Otters, Piper Cubs, Stinson Reliants, and Cessna Skywagons.

    Author: Mike Busch

Written in typical no-nonsense style, it lays out the basis of Mike's “minimalist” maintenance philosophy for owner-flown general aviation aircraft. An owner who follows the book's guidance can save a small fortune on maintenance costs and end up with a safer, more reliable aircraft. Ow
