Packed with 300 dynamic illustrations! LEARN WHY AERONAUTICAL CHARTS ARE AN ESSENTIAL FLYING COMPANION! Whether you're a commercial pilot or someone who flies for recreation, creating a detailed, well-crafted flight plan can mean the difference between a smooth ride and a world of trouble. That's why to truly maximize your own safety -- and that of your passengers -- you need McGraw-Hill's insightful "Using Aeronautical Charts." Designed to assist pilots in pre-flight preparations and with in-flight decision-making, "Using Aeronautical Charts" will help you transform these navigational tools into indispensable piloting partners. Through the book's easy-to-read, practical guidance, you'll: * Master the specifics of VFR, IFR, and other charts * Understand the wide variety of chart symbols and their impact upon flight planning * Become familiar with the new RNAV charts * Stay up to date with current airspace classifications. * And much, much more! Perfect for students -- yet detailed enough for seasoned pilots -- "Using Aeronautical Charts" delivers its lessons through a unique "Reader Challenge" format. As a result, you'll build knowledge as you progress, rapidly moving from the basics of chart interpretation to international operations and beyond. YOUR LIFE MAY DEPEND ON KNOWING THE RIGHT ANSWERS! True or False...? * All information about an instrument approach is contained in the published Instrument Approach Procedure (IAP) chart. * The Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) provides pilots with mandatory procedures. * An underlined frequency indicates the facility operates on a part-time basis. * Pilots operating under instrumentflight rules (IFR) navigation are required to accept chartered visual flight procedures (CVFP) when assigned by Air Traffic Control. * Controlled airspace establishes visual flight rules (VFR) minimums, and may mandate minimum pilot qualifications and aircraft equipment.
