Publisher's summary

Unabridged and expertly crafted for audiobook listeners.

The Airplane Flying Handbook provides basic knowledge that is essential for pilots. This handbook introduces basic pilot skills and knowledge that are essential for piloting airplanes. It provides information on transition to other airplanes and the operation of various airplane systems. It is developed by the Flight Standards Service, Airman Testing Standards Branch, in cooperation with various aviation educators and industry. This handbook is developed to assist student pilots learning to fly airplanes. It is also beneficial to pilots who wish to improve their flying proficiency and aeronautical knowledge, those pilots preparing for additional certificates or ratings, and flight instructors engaged in the instruction of both student and certificated pilots. It introduces the future pilot to the realm of flight and provides information and guidance in the performance of procedures and maneuvers required for pilot certification. Topics such as navigation and communication, meteorology, use of flight information publications, regulations, and aeronautical decision making are available in other Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publications.

Occasionally the word “must” or similar language is used where the desired action is deemed critical. The use of such language is not intended to add to, interpret, or relieve a duty imposed by Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR). It is essential for persons using this handbook to become familiar with and apply the pertinent parts of 14 CFR and the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM). The AIM is available online at faa.gov. The current Flight Standards Service airman training and testing material and learning statements for all airman certificates and ratings can be obtained from faa.gov.

This handbook supersedes FAA-H-8083-3A, Airplane Flying Handbook, dated 2004.

Very Useful, but ...

The audio book was s useful as I used it while following on the printed 2021 copy. I gave it 4 stars as my only comment is the narration is missing the Energy Management chapter (was chapter 4, in the colored printed copy by US department of transportation)

NEEDS UPDATE

This audiobook needs a major update. The original audio was released in 2021 but there have been several updates to the text. When trying to follow along with text/audio it is nearly impossible. Many paragraphs are completely reworded and some chapters are rearranged or missing altogether.
