Containing all of the necessary study material to ace the instrument rating and commercial pilot license exams, this comprehensive guide helps pilots move beyond their private certificate and excel in their continuing education. Basic subjects—weather, aerodynamics, and performance—are augmented and combined with more advanced topics, including Instrument Flight Rules, radio navigation, flight plans, and cockpit organization. Useful appendices include glossaries of terms commonly used in pilot/control tower operations, up-to-date weather communications information, and flight plan preparation aids.
