The Instrument Flight Manual
The Instrument Flight Manual
Significant time is devoted to air traffic control as it is one of the most difficult aspects of flying IFR. Kershner's goal in this manual is to cover the subject in as much detail as possible while remaining uncomplicated.
Airspeeds, expected clearances, and altitudes used are based on high-performance, retractable-gear, four-place, general aviation airplanes unless otherwise noted. Jet and other high-altitude (above 18,000') IFR operations are left for coverage in other books. Numerous illustrations by the author aid in visualization of the concepts. This book covers everything students need to know to obtain an FAA instrument rating and will be a valuable aid to instructors. Current to the October 2004 Instrument Rating Practical Test Standards. Softback, illustrated, 8.5" x 11", 312 pages.
