Experimental Wife: Life with Stick and Rudder

Sandy Bangham presents an entertaining, happy-go-lucky memoir outlining a life of challenges, problems, struggles, patience, persistence and true grit - everything it takes to get a home built airplane out of the basement and into the air. Once the Barracuda took shape and was airworthy the real test of fortitude began. She equates her husband's building an airplane to Winston Churchill's description of authorship...."writing a book was an adventure. To begin with it was a toy...then it became a mistress, then a master, and then a tyrant, and in the last phase, when you are reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster."
