The Gyroplane Flight Manual
This is the world's most popular book on amateur-built gyroplanes. It introduces these unique helicopter-like aircraft that have become popular worldwide for sport flying. Thousands of pilots now take to the sky in these small, maneuverable aircraft that they themselves have built. This book tells what gyroplanes are like, how they fly, and how to learn to fly them. It contains a section on selecting the best gyroplane for your individual needs. It discusses frankly the risks of flying these aircraft and provides information on flying safety. There's a pilot report that lets you feel a real flight in a gyroplane and a troubleshooting guide for beginning pilots. This book contains hard-to-get information on where the gyroplane came from and current popular models of gyroplanes. It has many photographs and illustrations. Author Paul Bergen Abbott is a veteran gyroplane pilot who recently received the Gyrocopter Pioneer Award from Hofstra University for his aviation journalism, which includes this book, plus another book, "Understanding the Gyroplane," along with other books and magazine articles, and experience as editor/publisher of Rotorcraft magazine. Abbott is also the editor of a book by Igor Bensen, the inventor of the Gyrocopter, "A Dream of Flight." Abbott wrote the original edition of "The Gyroplane Flight Manual" in 1977 and has continually updated and expanded it. This is the seventh edition of this popular book.

On 25 August 2006, Catherine and myself battled through the hassles of Heathrow Airport, boarded a plane, got to Oslo, missed our connecting flight, got another flight, and finally got to Bergen.
Yes, this is day 1 of our holiday in Norway, which would see us take in two fjords and start and end here in Bergen.
On your right you can see Bergen's famous fish market (great for vegetarians!) and right at the top is the Floibanen (the city's funicular railway) on top of Mount Floyen.
Taken on day 1 of our fjord based holiday in Norway.

PREFACE.
In the "Popular Science Monthly" for July, 1886, there was printed a somewhat miscellaneous assortment of customs and superstitions under the title: _Animal and Plant Lore of Children_. This article was in the main composed of reminiscences of my own childhood spent in Northern Ohio, though two or three friends of New England rearing contributed personal recollections. Seldom is a line cast which brings ashore such an abundant catch as did my initial folk-lore paper. A footnote had, by the advice of a friend, been appended asking readers to send similar lore to the writer. About seventy answers were received, from all sorts of localities, ranging from Halifax to New Orleans. These numerous letters convinced me that there was even then, before the foundation of the national Society, a somewhat general interest in folk-lore,--not a scientific interest, but a fondness for the subject-matter itself. Many who do not care for folk-lore as a subject of research are pleased to have recalled to them the fancies, beliefs, and customs of childhood and early youth. A single proverb, superstition, riddle, or tradition may, by association of ideas, act like a magic mirror in bringing back hundreds of long-forgotten people, pastimes, and occupations. And whatever makes one young, if only for an hour, will ever fascinate. The greater number of those who kindly responded to the request for additional notes to my animal and plant lore were naturally those of somewhat literary or scientific tastes and pursuits. Many letters were from teachers, many others from physicians, a few from professional scientists, the rest from men and women of various callings, who had been pleased by suggestions that aroused memories of the credulous and unreflecting period in their own lives. The abundant material thus brought in, which consisted of folk-lore items of the most varied kind, was read gratefully and with pleasant surprise.
The items were assorted and catalogued after some provisional fashion of my own. Succeeding papers issued in the "Popular Science Monthly" brought in further accessions. I gradually formed the habit of asking, as opportunity offered, any one and every one for folk-lore. Nurses abound in such knowledge. Domestic help, whether housekeepers, seamstresses, or servants, whether American or foreign, all by patient questioning were induced to give of their full store.
The folk-lorist who chances to have a pet superstition or two of his own that he never fails to observe, has an open-sesame to beliefs of this sort held by any one with whom he comes in contact. The fact that I have (I blush to confess it) a preference for putting on my right shoe before the left has, I dare say, been the providential means of bringing to me hundreds of bits of folk-lore. Many times has the exposure of this weakness instantly opened up an opportunity for asking questions about kindred customs and superstitions. I once asked an Irish peasant girl from County Roscommon if she could tell me any stories about fairies.....
