Description
 

Flying IFR


Flight-tested keys to success in today's world of IFR flight.

Author Richard Collins shares his experience in this guide to the real world of instrument flight, detailing the IFR system, equipment, and exploring the risks and rewards of instrument flying. The invaluable discussions on instrument airmanship, weather analysis, flight planning and decision making, handling equipment glitches, and that critical survival skill — partial panel flying — are all presented for the sole objective of better preparing you to fly on IFR flight plans. This fourth edition takes into account the current IFR environment, and includes chapters dedicated to:

   * perfecting basic attitude instrument flying for the foundation of a successful IFR flight
   * light airplane operation in the middle high-altitudes beginning at 18,000 feet
   * the relationship between systems — including autopilots — and instrument flying
   * using all resources, including computers, to file flight plans, obtain and interpret weather information, and prepare flight plans for the best preflight readiness
   * managing stress
   * IFR flight in and around ice, thunderstorms, and at night

The only tests this book prepares you for are those encountered in flying actual IFR. Where the initial instrument checkride leaves off with the applicant receiving a "dry" instrument ticket, this book provides the information necessary to "get it wet." Soft cover, 230 pages, indexed.

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."
