This new FAA AMT Handbook—Airframe Volume 1 is one of two volumes (Airframe Volume 2 here) that replace and supersede Advisory Circular (AC) 65-15A. Completely revised and updated, this handbook reflects current operating procedures, regulations, and equipment.
This book was developed as part of a series of handbooks for persons preparing for mechanic certification with airframe or powerplant ratings, or both — those seeking an Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT) Certificate, also called an A&P license. An effective text for both students and instructors, this handbook will also serve as an invaluable reference guide for current technicians who wish to improve their knowledge.
This Airframe Volume 1 provides the basic information on principles, fundamentals, and technical procedures in the subject matter areas relating to the airframe rating including: Aircraft Structures, Aerodynamics, Aircraft Assembly and Rigging, Aircraft Fabric Covering, Aircraft Metal Structural Repair, Aircraft Welding, Aircraft Wood and Structural Repair, Advanced Composite Materials, Aircraft Painting and Finishing, and Aircraft Electrical System.
Includes colored charts, tables, full-color illustrations and photographs throughout, and an extensive glossary and index.

I purchased this book to supplement my knowledge of the airframe for my CFI checkride. It offers better graphics and a greater depth of discussion than the PHAK. It is an excellent teaching tool as well for introducing new pilots to the various types of airframe construction and the materials used. I have purchased the powerplant volumes as well for the same purposes. In my opinion, no CFI should attempt to teach without having these books in his or her library.
