A very comprehensive text which revises all of the PPL performance syllabus and goes on to add those areas that are required at the CPL level. All exercises and tests are accompanied by fully explained, and where calculations are involved, fully worked answers.

The new European Joint Aviation Requirements (JARs) lay down rules governing the minimum levels of performance which must be attained by every type of public transport aeroplane. These rules cover matters such as weight, altitude and temperature, take-off and landing distance, cruise flight level and speed, and descent angle and rate. The subject of aircraft performance forms an important part of all JAR Flight Crew Licensing examinations for commercial and airline transport pilot licences, and this book provides a clear but authoritative text on a difficult topic. It will also be of interest to commercial pilots needing to upgrade their annual ground test to JAR standards, and to flight planners, operations controllers and airport operators.

Country Public Limited (CPL) was a public sector enterprise in India. It manufactured electric equipments and had a strong customer-base in India and overseas. It had witnessed a major setback in 2012 in the form of de-growth of 25% in comparison to the previous year. Rising attrition of young talented employees had added to the dismay. Perturbed by the current state of affairs at CPL, Raghav Dutta, the General Manager for its Delhi division asked for the assistance of his consultant friend Gayatri Sharma. Gayatri attempted to get to the root of the problem. Her analysis based on thorough discussions with employees and managers threw up many horrifying facts about the performance management system at CPL.
