Write a Review
The Flight Bag Book of procedures, operations, communications, and reference for the pilots of general aviation aircraft. More Info »
|
The Pilot's Handbook is an illustrated how-to guide of procedures, operations, communications and reference for all general-aviation pilots. Subtitled The Flight Bag Book, this convenient, cockpit-handy manual features in-depth and specific procedural descriptions intended for reading on the ground, and checklists on heavy tabbed section dividers for use in the air. Hundreds of full-color illustrations illuminate the explanations, and a spiral binding allows for folding over or full opening. The Pilot's Handbook includes descriptions of airports and airspaces, flying into and from Class B and Class C airports, uncontrolled-airport procedures, communications and radio failures, approach briefings including effective use of both Jeppesen and FAA charts, problems and emergencies, as well as rules of thumb, an extensive glossary, and comprehensive index. Divided into VFR and IFR sections, the latter is a guide to instrument clearances and procedures, including the common ILS, VOR and GPS, and also refreshers for the less-frequently used NDBs, DME arcs, procedure turns and course reversals, and holds. This full-color, compact text is a welcome addition to any flight bag, and costs less than the price of an hour with a flight instructor.
Scott C. Todd is a captain and instructor pilot at a fractional aviation company, and a long-time flight instructor. He is a former English teacher, journalist, radio DJ, and Peace Corps volunteer.
