Inhaltsangabe

If you find yourself peering up at the sky as a plane roars past, there is a good chance you have caught the aviation bug and are fascinated by anything that flies. The Student Pilot Manual provides the perfect foundation for aspiring pilots to take the next step on their aviation journey.

Volume 1 of this series contains three important topics that all pilots must master:

• Aerodynamics explores the forces pushing and pulling on a plane during a flight. Pilots have plenty of control over some of these forces, but they can suddenly vanish if the plane is not flown correctly, causing it to plummet towards the ground.
• Performance looks at how well a plane can soar around the sky. There are many things that can make it harder for a plane to remain in the air, which is why pilots must know how their plane will perform throughout a flight.
• Weight and Balance explores the many problems that can occur if a plane is too heavy. Before every flight, pilots need to check that their plane is below its weight limits and that all the weight in the plane is in the correct position.

Whether you’re just starting on your aviation journey or have been flying for many years, The Student Pilot Manual will help you learn about the wonderful world of aviation.
