There
is no need to get too carried away but anticipation is everything!
Also in aviation you can never be too prepared.
In the past WwW has provided a BAK “Basic Aeronautical knowledge”
book to our students which they can keep for the cost price.
So either I can order this book and send it to
you or you can source it yourself from any book shop or flying school
or from the source! http://www.bobtait.com.au/
If you have internet access there is however a HUGE amount of this
sort of information on the web.
