The Complete Advanced Pilot

"If the Airline Transport Pilot certificate is the Ph.D. of aviation, the Commercial and Instrument tickets represent the bachelor's and master's degrees."

With this statement author Bob Gardner defines the advanced pilot, and this is his textbook written for the many pilots who streamline their efforts by preparing for both the instrument rating and the commercial certificate simultaneously.

An FAA Knowledge Exam is required for the instrument rating and the commercial certificate. Using these tests as the premise, Bob Gardner applies practical information so readers are not only prepared for the exams, but also for the cockpit. He augments the required aeronautical knowledge with specific tips and techniques, checklists and mnemonic devices, and sound advice from personal experience. This practical application of the FAA Knowledge Exam cannot be found in any other text.

Chapters are dedicated to the flight instruments, aerodynamics, airplane performance, navigation, weather, charts and publications, the IFR system and departures, enroute operations, arrivals, instrument approaches, cockpit organization and procedures, regulations, advanced operations, and preparing for the practical tests (checkrides). Each chapter concludes with sample questions taken directly from the FAA tests. This Third Edition features useful aviation website addresses throughout the book.

With the author's conversational yet concise writing style, readers will quickly grasp the subjects, pass the required tests and checkrides, and have an operational understanding of flight they can take to the cockpit as newly-minted commercial pilots operating under instrument flight rules.

Softcover, glossary and index included, 472 pages. Foreword by Dave Gwinn.
