So, you are curious in flying. You visited your local flying club and watched all sorts of planes take off. You day dream mental that you would like to do that someday. Well you can! If anyone that I can tell you is that flying is a piece of cake. Its the dedication and the hard work that you have to put into it is the hard part.
Some good places to start for studying from books is the "Ftgu". From The Ground Up is a book that basically has all in it you need to know! The image you see on the left here is the Asa version (American). This book contains all you need to know about planes, aviation, Cars (Canadian Aviation Regulations) and much more. Reading this you will learn about Aircraft Engines and how they work, the principles of flight and even meteorology! So if you want to learn more I recommend picking this book up!
Although, every country has its own rules and books, so once you have some knowledge to fall back on, you will have to look into those as well.
Another book that is categorically animated and where vehicle Canada takes a lot of questions for their exams is the Air Command Weather Manual. This book has many graphics and illustrations to clarify all sorts of things. Its full of knowledge, and has stuff that even if you are an experienced meteorologist, you will have something to learn.
One last book I would like for you to be aware about. The illustrated Guide to Aerodynamics by Hc 'Skip' Smith goes into great information about the principles of flight. So if you all the time asked your self the question, how do airplanes fly? Well this book well tell you all you need to know and then some!
With all that said, take your time and take a look at these books. The Ftgu is great for first timers to get introduced into flying. The other two are more industrialized and will prove some used down the road to improve your knowledge about flying, the principles of flight and meteorology!
