Newly updated, "Practical Aviation Law" explains the fundamental concepts and applications of aviation law. Hamilton helps his readers understand how to avoid common legal problems on their own, and also points out how to identify problems which require professional legal counsel. Used in conjunction with Hamilton's workbook and a teacher's manual, "Practical Aviation Law" provides a complete course work for undergraduate classes in aviation law. The basic student manual alone, can serve as a solid reference for aviation managers, professional and private pilots, flight crews, airline personnel and aircraft owners.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent book. A must read for all pilots,
By A Customer
This review is from: Practical Aviation Law (Hardcover)
I'm a pilot not a lawyer and I have no connection with the author or the company. This excellent book explains in easy to understand language how the aviation legal system works (and doesn't work). The book tells you what steps to take or more importantly, not to take when dealing with the FAA or other aviation related parties. All pilots should read this book to learn how to protect your license.

If you hold an FAA certificate -- you need this book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Practical Aviation Law (Hardcover)
Several years ago, while attending Emery-Riddle Aeronautical University, this book was used as our textbook for Aviation Law. To this day, anytime I get on the subject of Aviation Law, I recommend this book to anyone who holds an FAA certificate. I'm a Maintenance Supervisor for a major airline and have suggested it to my employees who have found themselves in less than desirable situations involving enforcement actions. They always come back to me with the same comment; "I wish I had read this book before I got into trouble." Learn from their mistakes - read the book before you NEED the book. It's short and to the point, you won't be sorry!

A superb reference for aviation professionals & hobbiests.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Practical Aviation Law (Hardcover)
Now in a completed updated, revised and expanded second edition, Scott Hamilton's Practical Aviation Law provides complete, competent course for self-study or undergraduate study on how the legal system works with respect to aviation activities. With entertaining examples of aviation law in action, all of the recent changes to date in statutory and regulatory law are clarified, including international law. Practical Aviation Law is soundly recommended as a quick reference guide for aviation managers, private and professional aviators, flight cres, airline personnel, aircraft owners, air traffic controllers, air safety investigators, and the non-specialist general reader involved in aviation as a profession or hobby.
