Many dream of becoming a pilot but few realise it in their life. Many people can be taught to fly but for those who have taken the first steps towards the coveted pilot's licence, they will be only too aware that it does take hard work and application to achieve their ambition. There is a medical to pass, a number of groundwork courses and exams to take and then there is the flying course itself with its own tests and exams at the end. This book aims to cover in a clear and concise way the whole of the flying course - from checklists, ground inspections, take-off, flight manoeuvres, navigation, flying on instruments and finally making a safe landing under various conditions. The exercises cover the entire flying course for the private pilot's licence and students following either the European EASA course or Americans studying the FAA course will find this guide a useful aid. It is recommended that a student should study a particular exercise in the book before practising it for real with their instructor in the aircraft. In that way the fundamentals and procedures will have been learnt allowing the time in the cockpit to be devoted to flying the manoeuvre. This should help the student pilot to save both time and money. Flying is a wonderful hobby or occupation - enjoy every flight.
