This money-saving eBundle includes the print book and eBook PDF.
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
