Product Description

No pilot, flight instructor, or aviation student should be without this official handbook of procedures. Designed as a technical reference for instrument-rated pilots who want to maximize their skills in an "Instrument Flight Rules" environment, the Federal Aviation Administration's Instrument Procedures Handbook contains the most current information on FAA regulations, the latest changes to procedures, and guidance on how to operate safely within the National Airspace System in all conditions. In-depth sections cover takeoffs and departures, en route operations, arrivals and approach, system improvement plans, and helicopter instrument procedures. Thorough safety information covers relevant subjects such as runway incursion, land and hold short operations, controlled flight into terrain, and human factors. Featuring an index, an appendix, a glossary, full-color photos, and illustrations, the Instrument Procedures Handbook is a valuable training aid and reference for pilots, instructors, and flight students, and the most authoritative book on instrument use anywhere. 300 color illustrations

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent: all IFR pilots should have a copy ..., August 3, 2008
This review is from: Instrument Procedures Handbook (Paperback)
... the FAA provides the complete book, free, as a full color PDF.

http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aviation/instrument_procedures_handbook/

Having a bound, printed version is very handy; however, the complete book is freely available from the FAA. Take a look at it there before you buy this re-print.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, January 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Instrument Procedures Handbook (Paperback)
One of the better Government publications in how well it is illustrated and written for practical use. The Glossary could be more complete and does not cover all acronyms.
