This FAA handbook has been required reading for pilots for more than 25
years. Written for the applicant preparing for the Private, Commercial,
or Flight Instructor Certificates, it is also valuable to flight
instructors as a teaching aid. Providing basic knowledge essential for
all pilots--from beginning student pilots to those pursuing more
advanced pilot certificates--this book introduces pilots to the broad
spectrum of knowledge that will be needed as they progress through pilot
training. Studying this book, pilots gain the required knowledge to earn
a certificate, and can understand the theory associated with flying an
airplane. It is a key reference tool to all the information necessary
for operating an aircraft.
