Intended for use by professional airline pilts in preparation for their simulator checkride, this manual also has great carry-over information for the serious PC simmer who desires to know how the airline pilots "do it." Written in an entertaining and witty style, it is a great read for anyone who is interested in flying the Boeing 757/767 series airplanes.
Mike Ray is a pilot ... and loves airplanes.
You can visit Captain Mike at his website: www.utem.com.
His very popular collection of aviation books concentrate on how to fly the big jets and are intended to be easy to understand,filled with information,and entertaining at the same time. While crammed with graphics and detailed images that dissect and explain the complicated inner working of the airplanes, the presentation of the material is presented so as to allow it to be read by the entry level and novice devotees as well as the veteran aviation professional. Even though most of his writing is written with the PROFESSIONAL AIRLINE PILOT in mind, there is plenty of detailed information for FLIGHT SIMMERS and just plain interested AVIATION ENTHUSIASTS.
Having spent most of his life strapped to the pilot seat of a whole bunch of really cool airplanes, he is now retired and wants to share his virtually inexhaustible reservoir of (probably mostly useless) knowledge and impressions with other aviation fanatics. His story is simple: College - US Navy - United Airlines. After his tour with the US Navy as a Grumman S2 Tracker pilot, it was off to a civilian flying job and more than 30 years with a major airline.
