hi, thanks for the post...

i am about to be a beginner (see, im not even a beginner yet!) and want to take this very slow and learn as much as i can, i am going to be teaching myself basically. i noticed you mentioned the 'principles of flight' and the importance of it being understood, i am wondering where i can go to learn? any recommended reading? where do i begin, basically (to realize the elevator is not the up button, what an elevator is, etc)

thanks in advance!
