Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge
This book by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) provides the basic knowledge necessary for all pilots, from beginner students to those with higher-level certificates, and introduces readers to a wide range of knowledge necessary during pilot training. By studying this book, pilots gain the knowledge they need to become certified and understand the aerodynamic theory associated with flying an airplane. Written for the pilot preparing for the distance, sport, private, commercial, or Flight Instructor Pilot Certificate, it is a key reference for all the information needed to fly an aircraft and pass the FAA knowledge exam and practical test (checkride).
This invaluable study tool begins with a basic introduction to flying and flight history, then explores the role of the FAA, the criteria for obtaining various pilot certificates, how to choose a flight school and instructor, and the tests associated with obtaining a pilot certificate. Topics covered include aeronautical decision making, aircraft design, principles of flight, flight aerodynamics, flight control, aircraft systems, flight instruments, flight manuals and other documents, weight and balance, aircraft performance, weather theory, aviation meteorological services, airport operations, airspace, navigation, and aeromedical factors. Appendices provide additional support, including NOTAM acronyms, abbreviations, and abbreviations, airport signs and markings, a glossary, and an index.
This 2023 edition reflects the latest aviation industry procedures, equipment, techniques, and regulations, including unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), and is a key reference in the FAA’s Aviation Personnel Certification Standards (ACS). Complete with chapter summaries and illustrated with detailed full-color drawings and photographs, this handbook functions as an “aviation encyclopedia” to enhance pilots’ knowledge of the field.
Airplane Flying Handbook
The FAA Airplane Flying Handbook has been required reading for all pilots for over 40 years and contains the essential piloting skills and knowledge required to fly an airplane. It is useful for student pilots just starting out in aviation, as well as for pilots preparing for additional certificates and ratings or wishing to improve their flying skills, and for instructor pilots who are involved in training pilots of all skill levels.
This handbook provides information and guidance on procedures and maneuvers required for pilot certification. Chapters cover ground operations, basic flight maneuvers, slow flight, stops, turns, climbs during takeoff and departure, ground characteristics and support maneuvers, airport traffic patterns, approaches and landings, night operations, emergency procedures, and transitions to various types of airplanes, including complex, multi-engine, tail-lift, turboprop, and jet. The latest edition expands and updates the material that is a key reference in FAA testing and Airman Certification Standards (ACS) to include new areas of safety concern and technical information, such as loss-of-control disorder prevention and recovery training, and transition to light sport airplanes (LSA).
The Airplane Flight Manual is the FAA’s official source for flight training and for many of the FAA pilot exam test questions. Complete with chapter summaries and illustrated with detailed full-color drawings and photographs, it also includes a glossary and index.
