Flight Instruments for the Private Pilot

The focus of this book is on flight instruments found in general aviation aircraft - primarily single-engine, propeller-driven aircraft. However, many of the flight instruments in small aircraft can be found in aircraft of all sizes. This book follows closely the syllabi of Flight Instruments from a range of aviation authorities around the world. This book goes beyond these syllabi, with a particular focus on practical aviation, linking science with the real world. Each chapter contains a range of visual figures in full color and mini case studies that will allow the reader to have a deeper understanding of the flight instruments in their aircraft.
