Produktbeschreibung
A solid understanding of basic flight principles and no-nonsense advice on what to do once inside the cockpit is offered in this sensible toolbook. Containing step-by-step descriptions of a thorough preflight inspection, startup, taxi, takeoff, cruise, approach, landing, and after-landing actions, this authoritative guide places particular emphasis on what a pilot should actually be doing while in the pilot seat. While indispensable for active pilots and trainees, this manual is equally valuable for virtual aviators interested in adding a level of realism to their flight simulations. Discussions of basic aviation psychology, recall lists, flow checks, and airmanship fundamentals are also included.

Autorenporträt
Chris Burger provides a combination of practical and theoretical background that is unusual in aviation. He is a Designated Pilot Examiner on airplanes. His instruction experience of over 2,500 hours includes more than 80 aircraft models, including ultralights, medium jets and helicopters. He holds an Airline Transport Pilot Licence with instructor and test pilot ratings and has accumulated more than 3,500 hours on more than 100 aircraft models. By day, he works as a researcher in Artificial Intelligence systems. He holds a master's degree in engineering and a degree in aviation management, and is pursuing a PhD. He was once a licensed Air Traffic Controller. In his spare time, he plays with his daughter Lisa, is involved in a Christian church, flies as an Air Force Reserve pilot, plays several musical instruments badly and occasionally indulges in a little amateur radio.
