Book Reviews of Airplane Flying Handbook

Book Review: CFI Recommended
Summary: 5 Stars

I find I reference this text numerous times with each student pilot I work with. It is concise and accurate and a fine tool for teaching as well as learning. It might help to know that many of the questions asked on both the Aeronautical Knowledge Tests and the FAA Oral come directly from this book. Add Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge: FAA-H-8083-25, December 2003 (FAA Handbooks series) (a new version) and you have an excellent start to a training library.
