Beyond the Checkride
Our Price: $19.95
MSRP:$24.95
Asserting that a flight certificate is a pilot's ``license to learn,''
this unique book offers valuable lessons learned by veteran pilots.
Using the anecdotal style that has made his Flying magazine column so
popular, Fried bridges the gap between pilot training and in-flight
experience with his advice on vital but often under-emphasized areas of:
maneuvering speed; weight and balance; aircraft control; prop safety;
night flying; altitude.

"Takeoff and Climb"); and maps strategies for avoiding, diverting, correcting,
