This is an updated and expanded version of the first edition. It contains flying techniques, rules of thumb, and facts of flight gleaned from a variety of reference sources and from the author's 50 years as a professional pilot. As pilot in command of an aircraft, safety must always be an over riding concern. This book provides hard-to-find aeronautical information to help pilots make sound decisions when conditions are less than optimum.
