The Glider Pilot’s Handbook of
Aeronautical Knowledge contains all of the information that a
student must learn to meet the FAA requirements, to pass the FAA written
test, and to pass the SSA bronze badge written test.
Inside the front cover of this handbook,
you will find a list of topics titled
“Aeronautical Knowledge Progress Record”. The progress record
includes every knowledge area that the student must master before taking

section in this handbook. Extra copies of the progress record are
available in the

Note: This book may seem
expensive, but it is a very large and comprehensive book. When
comparing it with instructional book collections from other soaring
authors, be sure to keep in mind that this one book covers many of the
topics covered in multiple books by the other authors. The price
of this book compares favorably with the price of several books from the
other authors. Note: Much of
the content from this book is taken from the F.A.A. publication
