Default Many errors in FAA's "Glider Flying Handbook"

So, the FAA who requires pilots to speak and write English can't do it
themselves. Why does that not surprise me...?

We printed a corrected edition of the FAA manual. There were more than 1,400 editorial corrections - mostly fixing English language errors. However, there were numerous, safety of flight corrections.

Since it is a government publication, it is legal to make copies, and it has been made available without corrections from several sources.

The corrected edition is titled "Glider Flying Handbook" in case you are interested. Price is only $17.95 and there is a 25% quantity discount.
