The purpose of this book is to provide new pilots with a source of readily available information and act as a resource for instructors to transfer knowledge and visualize flight maneuvers. The information is intended to be found quickly when needed. Private Pilot Handbook is a reference book and has been developed specifically for those interested in acquiring or in need of a flight review for a Private Pilot License (PPL). Private Pilot Handbook covers a range of subject matters associated with Private Pilot Airman Certification Standards (ACS), Maneuvers, Oral/Written/Practical Exam Guide, VFR Communication Practices, ATC, and Comprehensive Private Pilot Glossary. Private Pilots must become familiar with continuously changing regulations and procedures. The Private Pilot Handbook is designed for student pilots, ground instructors, flight instructors, and others with a special interest in aviation. The main topics in private pilot training are briefly explained on a need-to-know basis, while topics students frequently have the most difficulty in are given in detail. Every pilot should be familiar with and use the current FAR-AIM, PilotOperation Handbook (POH), and Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM). The main sources used in the preparation of the Private Pilot Handbook are the aviation publications stated in the Airmen Certification Standards (ACS) in Figure 2B. For testing guidance, "underlined text and notes" cover questions asked in the written and practice exams.

Providing a detailed look at helicopter maneuvers, the information in this guide helps to solidify concepts gained from flight training in a student pilot's mind by incorporating the Practical Test Standards into every maneuver description. The graphical and textual explanations work in conjunction with an instructor's lessons, allowing students to prepare before sessions and to review afterwards as well. There are many guides to flight maneuvers and how to fly them in airplanes but none specifically made for helicopters, and not in the complete and fully color-illustrated way as presented in "Helicopter Maneuvers Manual." This handbook will be of immense help to flight instructors teaching helicopter maneuvers, following the FAA's practical test standards for certification of helicopter pilots. This book not only helps in training but can also be used for reference throughout the helicopterpilot's flight career. It provides readers with a crystal-clear picture of what level of performance is expected of them every step and includes insights into the common errors associated with each move.
