Product Description
Transitioning jet pilots receive a thorough introduction to systems, theory, and operations of today's jets. Experienced jet-pilot trainer Linda D. Pendleton thoroughly explains the critical differences between jet-driven and propeller-driven flight, including the effects of flying at increased speeds and higher altitudes and dealing with the complexity of jet systems. Includes all applicable FARs related to piloting jets and excellent illustrations that help readers visualize key concepts discussed in the text.
