Volume 3 of The Thinking Pilot's Flight Manual carries on the pragmatic and often unconventional approach to matters of vital significance to pilots begun in the widely praised Volumes 1 and 2. In fact, FLYING Magazine identified Volume 1 as one of its "10 best aviation books every pilot should read." As a sample, Volume 3 exposes aviation superstitions, gives an instructor's perspective on getting checked out in a new aircraft, talks frankly about buzz jobs, explains how to buy and insure an airplane, and digs into how pilots put themselves in jeopardy by worrying about the wrong things.

"Volume 2 of The Thinking Pilot's Flight Manual carries on the widely praise, penetrating, and clear-headed approach of Volume I, addressing matters of importance to pilots that ordinary flight training manuals never tough. It delves into everything from the realities of making the go/no-go decision during the takeoff roll, nailing spot landings, which emergencies to practice, and how to take babies and kids flying. It explores how we scare our passengers without realizing it, IFR training in IMC, and takes a hard look at spin training."--Back cover of volume 2

Highly illustrated and clearly written, The Turbine Pilot's Flight Manual is a must have for all pilots. It offers a complete description of turbine aircraft engines and systems including turboprops and jets. Additional chapters on high-speed aerodynamics, multipilot crew co-ordination, wake turbulence and high altitude weather are discussed at length. The book is perfect for not only those involved in pure jet operations; but for those involved in turboprop, multipilot operations, and transition training. It is a key tool for a successful turbine aviation career.

eBundle: printed book and eBook download code The Commercial license preparation manual from Kershner's "The Flight Manuals Series." Updated and edited by his son William C. Kershner. The Advanced Pilot's Flight Manual has long been a standard reference for pilots transitioning to advanced models and types and preparing for the Commercial Pilot knowledge and flight tests. This book bridges the gap between theory and practical application, covering the fundamentals of airplane aerodynamics and aircraft performance. Rules of thumb are used throughout as a means of presenting a clearer picture of the recommended performance parameters, and increasing understanding of the variable factors that affect aircraft operations such as altitude and temperature. Knowledge of these thumb rules will enable pilots to maximize performance when operating faster aircraft and at higher altitudes. Chapters are dedicated to: Airplane performance and stability for pilots Checking out in advanced models and types Emergencies and unusual situations Advanced navigation High-altitude Operations Preparing for the commercial knowledge and practical tests
