This official U.S. government guide to piloting aircraft—created by the Federal Aviation Administration—is the essential resource for finding the knowledge and skills to fly all types of planes. It includes an introduction to flight training and official information on ground operations, basic flight maneuvers, slow flight, stalls and spins, takeoff and departure climbs, ground reference maneuvers, airport traffic patterns, approaches and landings, performance maneuvers, and night operations. Pilots will find information on transitioning from small aircraft to more complex airplanes, as well as detailed explanations of emergency procedures. Each topic is coupled with colorful, detailed illustrations to aid the reader. Any pilot who wishes to maintain a current understanding of aircraft operation must read this book.

I find I reference this text numerous times with each student pilot I work with. It is concise and accurate and a fine tool for teaching as well as learning.

I bought this book for a friend that is just starting his training to get his license. I was so impressed after flipping though it, that I ordered one for myself as a refressher. I highly recommend it.

I can't imagine ever needing another book on this subject. As the official FAA guide, this book covers everything from take off to landing. Especially interesting was the section on Emergency Landings. It covers everything from Engine failure, cabin fire, and having to land in water (ditching). A must have for any aviator, or aviation enthusiast!
Rated by buyers -
This is an outstanding book for the new Certified Flight Instructor, walking you through each flight with a "primary" student and explaining why you should cover each event.
