Umfassendes Buch über die Praxis des Instrumentenflugs im europäischen Raum. Es basiert auf einer vielbeachteten Jahreskolumne des Autors, die im fliegermagazin unter gleichem Namen erschienen ist.
This book is an absolutely practical and comprehensive description of all IFR procedures and everything that goes with them, such as the important interface between pilot and air traffic control, dealing with IFR-relevant weather and decision-making in critical flight phases.
In addition to the structured and detailed presentation of standard IFR procedures, practical solutions are proposed and the underlying relationships illuminated. Many of the practical methods and techniques have been tried and tested by the author himself, often refined and developed his own patterns of action. It is precisely these techniques that he passes on to his students in practical flight instruction. With the summary of these practices, a guide is finally available that enables pilots to build up and deepen their flying skills. This guide is equally suitable for student pilots and all pilots who fly professionally and safely and do not just want to "get by somehow".
The book is designed for self-study and for trying out, because all methods and approaches are described step by step and comprehensibly.

Über den Autor:
Winfried Kassera, geboren 1942, seit dem 14. Lebensjahr aktiv im Segelflug und mit 19 einer der jüngsten deutschen Motorflieger, ist Segelfluglehrer, anerkannter Sachverständiger und Prüfungsrat bei einem Luftamt. Hauptberuflich unterrichtet er Mathematik und Physik an einer Realschule.
25 years ago the first edition of the "Flying Guide" was launched in the USA. Eight successful editions were published every two years. Professional requirements forced a break in 2001, so that the eighth edition, supplemented by current inserts, remained on the market until 2012. But since 2001 so much has changed that a new edition was finally due. With the 9th edition, a completely new book has been created. Today the Internet and modern communication technologies have replaced many things that were standard for pilots in 2001. Especially in the USA, offers have emerged that would have belonged to the realm of science fiction ten years ago. Many basic conditions have also changed. American general aviation is a 76 billion USD industry and European pilots still experience it as a paradise for training and flying holidays. But the fear of terrorist attacks occasionally forces us to adopt new behaviour patterns that must be observed. The American training system has been adapted to the requirements of modern GA aircraft and the latest findings from accident research and education. However, the procedures that holders of EU and US licences must follow when transferring their licences have also changed. In particular, the harmonisation and reinvention of European aviation law brings with it many changes that are hotly debated among pilots. The Guide to Flying in the USA describes the current facts and looks at the developments that can be expected in the near future. The European AOPA is involved in this development through various committees. As Vice President of the German AOPA, the author can therefore contribute a great deal of first-hand information. Operators of US registered aircraft will also find a valuable guide. In the end, the fun should not be neglected: For the flying holidays in Florida, there are 36 very personal tips for excursions as well as a chapter on flights to the Bahamas and across the Atlantic, so there is enough material for much more than just a flying holiday. If you come into contact with American licenses or aircraft, fly or train in the USA for business or private reasons, the 10th edition will again be a guide and valuable reference book.
The interactive Never Get Lost USB stick is the ideal complement to the book of the same name, but can also be used successfully separately. The author of Never Get Lost, Wilhelm Thaller, has many years of experience in the training of professional pilots and is himself active as a chief pilot in international flight operations.
The success of the Never Get Lost method is taken to the next level with this software version, which attempts to solve radio navigation problems that are difficult to explain in writing in a clear and interactive way.
All examples from the book are saved as flown exercises. The interactive learning module helps you to optimize your understanding of radio navigation.
Why this USB stick is so helpful?
Questions are asked.Answers can be shown in writing.Solutions can be presented as flown procedures.All your own exercises can be saved.Half of the screen can be turned into a large instrument or a map section.In combination with the explanations in the book Never get Lost, optimal learning success is almost guaranteed.
Mentales Training ist die Grundlage für den Erfolg: Ohne mentale Stärke kann man sein Leistungspotential nicht optimal nutzen. Das gilt für Sport und Freizeit, für den Beruf, aber auch für die Fliegerei.
Dieser praxisnahe Band gibt jedem Piloten die Instrumente an die Hand, um bewusster, besser vorbereitet, stressfreier und rundum sicherer zu handeln und zu fliegen. Dabei werden Fragen beantwortet wie »Warum Mentales Training für Piloten?«, »Wie kann ich aus Fehlern lernen?« und »Wie gehe ich mit Angst und Wettkampfdruck um?«.
Viele Beispiele und Erfahrungsberichte zeigen, dass Mentales Training den fliegerischen Alltag optimiert.
Sharpen your math skills for the interview as well as for the cockpit, with these great tips for figuring math problems in your head without paper or calculator.
A review of basic physical principles and vector analysis, lift, weight, thrust, drag, as well as other aviation topics as they relate to aerodynamics.
"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. While encouraging structure and discipline regarding procedures, the author does not merely check off lists of dry facts — Cockpit Procedures is also fun to read and Chris Burger keeps his readers focused with lively description and his knack for getting down to essentials in such a way that they stay with you.
Chris R. Burger is an instructor and pilot examiner, flies both airplanes and helicopters, was previously an Air Traffic Controller, and runs a flying school in South Africa. As a flight instructor whose academic background includes aviation psychology expertise, Chris works to promote a culture of safety and teach pilots how to stay out of trouble in the skies — a task well-served by more than 2,500 hours of instructor experience in over 80 different aircraft models.
Includes illustrations, glossary, and helpful appendices. Softcover, 7-1/4" x 9", 144 pages.
This Private Pilot Maneuvers manual uses step-by-step procedure descriptions and over 100 full-color figures to help you visualize and understand each maneuver you perform in the airplane. Skill Enhancement Insets provide expanded instructional guidance, helpful hints, explanations of common errors, and rules of thumb that can help you perform each maneuver precisely the first time. To prepare for your private pilot checkride, you can refer to the associated FAA practical test standards presented with each maneuver description.
