| Instrument Flying will teach you how to fly IFR with techniques used by experienced and professional pilots, taking advantage of the building-block technique. Master the groundwork required for instrument flight before going through the knowledge and skill required for departure, en route, terminal and approach procedures. Multiple illustrations simplify even those maneuvers perceived to be complicated: holding patterns, intercepting and tracking, flying an NDB approach with crosswinds. With all of the tasks from the FAA's Practical Test Standards covered in this text, instrument students are provided with a solid foundation to obtain and use the instrument rating. With up-to-date procedures and tips that could only be gleaned from experts, this text is an invaluable reference book for the instrument-rated pilot. Review questions conclude each chapter. Foreword by Barry Schiff. Softcover, 8-1/2 x11 format, illustrated throughout. Glossary included and indexed, 634 pages. Whether you fly for pleasure, business, or a career in aviation, the instrument rating is the pilot's ticket into the full specturm of the airspace system and the key to maximizing the functionality of your pilot certificate. The most comprehensive instrument textbook available, Instrument Flying covers all of the aeronautical knowledge and skill you need to earn your instrument rating: from basic attitude flying to navigation and meteorology, to the actual IFR maneuvers flown in the air. Thorough review sections hone your knowledge in preparation for the FAA Knowledge Exam, while detailed prose and illustrations prepare you for your oral and flight tests with confidence.
