Everything you need for the FAA instrument knowledge exam, your IFR proficiency check ride, updating and refreshing your knowledge. As a comprehensive information sourcebook, these pages include: Simplification of FAA's IFR scan concepts & an easy-to-use, cockpit-practical instrument scan technique Latest information on aviation decision making for instrument pilots Detailed understanding of analog and glass (PFD) flight instruments Detailed procedures for planning an IFR cross-country flight Easy to apply navigation methods for VOR, GPS, ADF and flying approaches to LPV, LNAV, LNAV/VNAV minimums Clear explanations of pertinent FARs, including instrument currency, lost comm, alternate requirements, etc. Step-by-step explanation of how instrument approach charts are constructed, including MDAs, DAs, procedure turns, etc. Practical understanding of the IFR system, GPS procedures, icing and thunderstorm avoidance, NEXRAD, RADAR, etc.ICAO Flight Plan form explanation and procedures for filing IFR flight plans.Graphical Forecasts for Aviation (GFAs) ExplainedThis Handbook is a teaching tour de force that takes pilots through the complex world of instrument flying. Long known for his unique ability to transform difficult concepts into simple-yet-complete explanations, Machado takes both new and experienced IFR pilots on a guided tour of instrument flying, from the basics through subtleties that many professional pilots will find useful. Nearly 1,000 illustrations shine further light on the topic at hand. From how the basic aircraft instruments work through what's inside a thunderstorm and how a GPS approach works, Machado teaches IFR pilots not just the minimum needed to pass the written exam, but every aspect of IFR flying. Covers the latest on GPS, glass cockpits, data uplinks, computer-based resources, and new (and future) technologies and techniques. It's a rich source of practical information about how real pilots really fly IFR. Learn how to gauge the thunderstorm potential of a cumulus cloud by estimating the rainfall rate, scan instruments for maximum performance with minimum effort, and keep the needle centered during approaches. It's fun, thorough, and the next best thing to having Rod sit by a pilot's side and talk him through each topic. Have fun while learning what you need to know in order to fly safely.

Volume 2 of The Thinking Pilot's Flight Manual carries on the widely praise, penetrating, and clear-headed approach of Volume I, addressing matters of importance to pilots that ordinary flight training manuals never tough. It delves into everything from the realities of making the go/no-go decision during the takeoff roll, nailing spot landings, which emergencies to practice, and how to take babies and kids flying. It explores how we scare our passengers without realizing it, IFR training in IMC, and takes a hard look at spin training. Rick Durden is one of three 2015 recipients of the Endeavor Award, honoring volunteer pilots who have made significant contributions to flying to serve the public. For 25 years he has made flights in remote areas of the U.S. and Central America in support of conservation. He is an Airline Transport-rated pilot with experience in over 200 types of airplanes, a practicing aviation attorney who has been involved in hundreds of aircraft accident cases, writer, aviation magazine editor, safety counselor, and flight instructor.

THE BEST RESOURCE A PILOT CAN HAVE TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO FLY IN ALL TYPES OF WEATHER How do you improve on the best guide for pilots to learn how to fly in all kinds of weather? The answer is the Fifth Edition of Weather Flying. Regarded as the bible of weather flying, this aviation classic not only continues to make complex weather concepts understandable for even the least experienced of flyers, but has now been updated to cover new advances in technology. At the same time, this respected text still retains many of its original insights from over four decades of publication, provided by renowned weather flying veteran Robert N. Buck. In a straightforward style, new author Robert O. Buck (son of the book's original author) delves into how computers, personal electronic devices, electronic flight instrument systems, and other technologies are changing the way general aviation pilots fly weather. He addresses the philosophy and discipline required to use these systems, what they are really telling us, and their task as supplement to good flying sense. The updated Fifth Edition also discusses how to handle changes in FSS weather briefing, including a look at new weather information products and airborne datalink weather information as they affect weather flying. This new edition features: Discussions of weather information--what it is, how to get it, and how to use it Explanations of various weather phenomena and how they affect a flight Updates on the new GPS and smart technology used in weather flying Changes in weather information and briefi ngs Descriptions of improved anti- and deicing systems Serious discussion of the pilot-electronics interface Now more than ever, having the Bucks' Weather Flying at the controls is the next best thing to having the authors with you in the cockpit.

Captain Laura Savino takes you directly into the cockpit for an exclusive look into the boy's club of airline pilots-told through the eyes of the first female pilot many of them ever flew with."No math," Laura's counselor told her in high school. "That would ruin your GPA." Laura had other plans. One teenage act of rebellion changed everything for her at a time when STEM opportunities for women were rare. If passengers on a commercial jet had trouble imagining a woman flight engineer - which Laura became - imagine their disbelief to see her as the pilot flying their widebody jet around the world.She exposes both the harsh truths and the exciting adventure of her years in the airline industry as a commercial pilot, reveals the emotional impact of 9/11 on pilots, and writes honestly about what it means to be a working mother while keeping her dreams alive.Laura's powerful story is a blueprint for how to defy expectations and follow your inner compass to do things you never thought possible.
