Instrument Flying Handbook

This is the FAA's primary pilot resource for instrument flight rules (IFR) covering everything pertinent to operating an aircraft in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) or without reference to outside visuals, relying solely on the information gleaned from the cockpit. Readers will find chapters on the national airspace system, the air traffic control system, human factors, aerodynamics, flight instruments, flight maneuvers for IFR operations, navigation, emergency operations, as well as helicopter operations and more. The material in this manual applies to both conventional "steam-gauge" analog instrumentation and the "glass cockpit" electronic flight displays found in advanced aircraft. Information is well organized into separate coverage of the traditional "6-pack" and discussions of pictorial "tape" displays. Advanced systems are covered, including flight management systems, the primary flight display (PFD) and multi-function display (MFD), synthetic vision, and traffic advisory systems. The book also features a synopsis of instrument clearance shorthand, as well as an instrument training lesson guide. The Instrument Flying Handbook is designed for use by flight instructors, pilots preparing for the Instrument Rating FAA Knowledge and Practical Exams, and instrument-rated pilots looking for a refresher or preparing for an Instrument Proficiency Check (IPC).

Aircraft Weight and Balance Handbook eBundle

Includes print book + eBook PDF Weight and balance is an important aspect to the safety of flight. An overweight aircraft, or one whose center of gravity is outside the allowable limits, is inefficient and dangerous to fly. The responsibility for proper weight and balance control begins with the engineers and designers, and extends to the pilot and mechanic who flies and maintains the aircraft. This Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publication addresses this safety-crucial topic and in studying this handbook, pilots and Aviation Maintenance Technicians (AMTs) will gain the necessary knowledge on the subject of aircraft weight and balance, in preparation for the FAA Knowledge Exam as well as safe flight and maintenance operations. Basic aircraft weight and balance control principles and procedures for the preparation, and the actual weighing of an aircraft start the discussion, including the methods of determining the location of the empty weight center of gravity. Loading computations with loading graphs and tables of weight and moment indexes follow, including instructions on determining the weight and center of gravity changes caused by repairs and alterations or removal and installation of equipment. Chapters are dedicated to light-sport aircraft, single-engine aircraft, multi-engine aircraft, and commuter and large aircraft, as well as helicopter weight and balance control and determining lateral CG. Also included are examples of solving weight and balance problems using a hand-held electronic calculator, E6-B flight computer, and a dedicated electronic flight computer. This 2016 Edition reflects the latest aviation industry procedures, equipment, techniques, regulations, and is a key reference in the FAA Airman Certification Standards (ACS). Illustrated throughout with detailed, full-color drawings, and includes a glossary and index.

Notes of a Seaplane Instructor

"Dieses Buch ist voller hart erarbeiteter Kenntnisse, von denen alle WasserflugzeugpilotInnen, ob AnfängerIn oder Veteran, lernen können. Ich wünschte, ich hätte dieses Buch schon damals gehabt, als ich lernte, Wasserflugzeuge zu fliegen" - aus dem neuen Vorwort der zweiten Ausgabe. Notes of a Seaplane Instructor ist eine Zusammenstellung aller Tipps, Techniken und Verfahren eines altgedienten Piloten und Lehrers, in einem ansprechenden und informativen Format. Der Autor Burke Mees hat eine Affinität für das "Gefühl der Schwimmer auf dem Wasser" und wie man es schriftlich vermittelt, sowie einen vernünftigen, professionellen Ansatz, welcher der Leserschaft seines Buches einen persönlichen Aspekt verleiht. Es werden alle Manöver von Wasserflugzeugen behandelt, angefangen bei der Vorflugkontrolle, über Roll-, Start- und Landeverfahren bis hin zu den Verfahren nach dem Flug; ebenso wie der Betrieb unter verschiedenen Wasserbedingungen, die Stabilität des Flugzeugs auf dem Wasser, das auf Stufe gehen und vieles mehr. Viele Illustrationen, die den Originalskizzen des Autors für das Fluglehrbuch entnommen und von diesen inspiriert wurden, helfen, die Konzepte weiter zu erläutern. In dieser neuen zweiten Ausgabe gibt Burke noch mehr Anmerkungen zu Techniken und zur Leistung in der Welt der Wasserflugzeuge. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf der Sicherheit und der besten Art, als Pilot Entscheidungen zu treffen, die Wasserflugzeuge am Fliegen halten. Die zweite Ausgabe enthält auch ein zusätzliches Kapitel über das Fliegen mit mehrmotorigen Wasserflugzeugen und einen Anhang mit Anmerkungen zum Aufblasen der Schwimmer und Seile und Splicing.

ATC & Weather: Mastering the Systems

In diesem Buch hebt Richard Collins die Bedeutung einer optimalen Abstimmung des Flugsicherungs- und Wettersystems hervor und betont, wie wichtig diese ist. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Urteilsvermögen der PilotInnen. Ein Flug wird durch Winde beeinträchtigt, Stürme sind immer ein Risiko... Ein Flug wird durch Winde beeinträchtigt, Stürme sind immer ein Risiko... und in Anbetracht der Sichtverhältnisse - ein Gebiet, das die Vorschriften mit einer pauschalen Regel abdecken, die die VFR-Mindestwerte in Meilen festlegt - berücksichtigt dies nicht die Geschwindigkeitsunterschiede, und die Rechtmäßigkeit einer Vorschrift garantiert nicht die Sicherheit von PilotInnen und PassagierInnen. Doch Richard Collins enträtselt die Kunst des Fliegens, indem er PilotInnen mit soliden Ratschlägen und genauen Beispielen für Verbesserungen durch gängige Missverständnisse führt. Von der Flugplanung bis hin zu Ankunft, Anflug und Landung ermutigt Collins am Beispiel seiner eigenen Flug-Selbstanalyse alle PilotInnen, ihre eigene Leistung zu hinterfragen. Es wird ein Grundkurs über das Wetter angeboten, der als Basis für das Erlernen des Lesens der Kennzeichen dient: VFR, IFR, MVFR, CVFR (Fortsetzung VFR) - Welches Wetter führt zu den Beschriftungen, auf denen Flugentscheidungen basieren? Wie sammelt man während des Preflights die notwendigen Informationen, analysiert die Bedingungen während des Fluges und berechnet seine eigene Prognose auf der Grundlage neuer Informationen? Wann ist es sinnvoll, über der Wolkendecke zu fliegen und wann sollten Sie versuchen darunter zu bleiben? In dieser überarbeiteten zweiten Auflage seines Buches lehrt Collins Sie, wie Sie die Flugsicherung zu Ihrem Vorteil nutzen können. Die Faktoren, die Sie bei diesen Entscheidungen berücksichtigen müssen, werden umrissen und mit Beispielen aus persönlichen Erfahrungen und Unfallberichten ergänzt. Er erklärt die häufigsten Entscheidungen, die PilotInnen getroffen haben, wenn sie von schlechtem Wetter überrascht wurden, und legt alle Faktoren dar, damit Sie genügend Informationen haben, um für Sie sinnvolle Piloten- und Flugzeugbegrenzungen zu entwickeln und zu wissen, wann Sie die Flugsicherung um Hilfe bitten müssen. Aber selbst wenn Wetterdaten und -dienste unterwegs zur Verfügung stehen, ist Collins zuversichtlich in Bezug auf sein Handwerk. Sein Urteilsvermögen lässt auch nach 40 Jahren Fliegen nicht nach.

Cockpit Procedures

"How-to" guide for what you should be doing in the cockpit during each phase of flight! Written by an experienced instructor and pilot examiner, Cockpit Procedures provides a solid understanding of the underlying principles for, and detailed descriptions of the checklists and routines used in many flight schools. Readers will find it contains a practical definition of airmanship, and covers what good habits to develop, effective workload management, and even what you should have in your flight bag. Cockpit Procedures is about cockpit actions and thinking, giving readers the rationale behind common procedures that are standard practice in the training environment and in the airlines. Both airplanes and helicopters are covered, delivering the essential aspects of effective training — technical knowledge, practical application and context learning. Cockpit Procedures targets the pilot just beginning his/her career, yet many of the philosophies and practical techniques taught here are so fundamental and powerful they will carry a pilot right through to retirement.
