A pilot can travel a considerable distance, across a range of different landscapes on a single flight; from rugged bush, oceans, mountainous terrain and deserts. No other mode of transport offers such freedom. But with this freedom comes responsibility. To arrive safely at a distant destination, pilots must understand the key components of flight navigation. Flying the wrong heading, underestimating the time and fuel for the flight can all have serious consequences. The main focus of this book is flying a cross-country flight under visual flight rules (VFR). This book follows closely the syllabi of Navigation and Flight Planning from a range of aviation authorities around the world. This book goes beyond these syllabi, with a particular focus on practical aviation, linking science with the real world. Each chapter contains a range of visual figures in full color and mini case studies that will allow the reader to have a deeper understanding of the wide range of components of flight navigation.

Every year thousands of private pilots buy an Aeronautical Information Manual with the intention of studying it. Studying the AIM is difficult because of the layout of the book. Elite Aviation Solutions professional pilot staff has created an easy to use AIM study guide with only the private pilot in mind. Private pilots no longer have to waste time going through the AIM trying to determine what to study. This study guide was created to make a private pilots study time much more productive. Apply Elite Aviation Solutions Aviation Study Made Easy System and understand the AIM better than you ever have. The study guide contains over 1,500 questions with answers and over 150 images to assist private pilots in taking their pilot knowledge to an elite level. Be the most knowledgeable pilot at the airport.

eBundle: printed book and eBook download code This Third Edition of "Global Navigation for Pilots: International Flight Techniques and Procedures" is written and updated by Dale DeRemer, Ph.D. and Gary Ullrich, and serves as the continuation of what has been the definitive textbook on the subject since 1993. Covers long-range and trans-oceanic navigation techniques and procedures, and international flight planning, systems, and regulations. Topics include: GPS, RVSM airspace, featureless terrain navigation, celestial concepts important to pilots, ICAO aircraft registry information, and how to get your flight department ready to fly internationally. Fully illustrated in B/W, and includes glossary and index.

Principles of flight is one of the fundamental topics a pilot must master to operate an aircraft safely. Pilots have so much control over the various forces acting on the aircraft, but flying an aircraft also comes with responsibility. To avoid flying an aircraft beyond its limits, pilots must respect the principles of flight. Turning too sharply, flying too slowly, or overloading an aircraft can all have dire consequences. This book follows closely the syllabi of Principles of Flight (aerodynamics) from a range of aviation authorities around the world, allowing the reader to obtain the required knowledge in Principles of Flight. This book goes beyond these syllabi, with a particular focus on practical aviation, linking science with the real world. Each chapter contains a range of visual figures in full color and mini case studies that will allow the reader to have a deeper understanding of the wide range of components of Principles of Flight.
