Balloon Flying Handbook

The FAA has released their first book dedicated to balloon flying. The handbook serves to introduce balloon flight to prospective students who are seeking information on this exciting sport.

- Beginning with a brief history of balloon flight, the book provides information and guidance to pilots in the performance of maneuvers and procedures. Subjects covered include equipment and components, preparing for flight, inflation, launch and landing, inflight maneuvers, and post-flight procedures such as deflation and fueling. Chapters are included on special operations such as tethering and emergency procedures, regulations, and maintenance, earning a pilot certificate, and aeronautical decision making. Appendices provide sample weather briefings, checklists, a reprint of 14 CFR Part 31 (the regulation governing the airworthiness standards for manned balloons), and an airman application.

- This new FAA-H-8083-11 is the official source for all balloon questions appearing on the FAA Knowledge Exams. Softcover format, color illustrations, 128 pages, includes glossary.

What our Customers Say

"You were recommended by a fellow student pilot at work who has purchased some pilot supplies from you before. I am impressed with your wide selection of Pilot Gifts, and pilot supplies. Your staff helped me pick the most appropriate pilot gift for my husband who is an airline pilot. So far, your pilot service has been excellent."
-- Audrey,SC

"My pilot supplies and gear arrived just in time for my next flight lesson. My Certified Flight Instructor was so impressed he even placed an order with CFI Pilot Supply Shop. Rock on CFI!!"
-- Christopher, CA

"Thanks for the two hour reply. I must admit I'm shocked to receive a reply on Sunday night. I hope the manufacturer is as helpful as you say they are. What I wanted to say in the first part of my e-mail is that all of my dealings with CFI Pilot Shop have left me extremely impressed with both your prices and service. It is a rare occasion these days where you obtain both reasonable prices and excellent customer service. I look forward to purchasing my instrument/commercial pilot supplies from CFI Pilot Shop."
-- Jerome, FL
