Pilot’s transitioning to the airlines seldom realize they will have
to put their instrument flying skills to work using modern cockpit
technology. This book gives you a head start on learning this
exciting new aspect of airline flying.
Unlike conventional flight training manuals, this book places you in
the captain’s seat and takes you step-by-step through a challenging
line flight. After programming your flight route using the flight
management computer, learn how to use the airplane’s autoflight
system to help automatically guide you along the route you have
built. Deals with realistic enroute scenarios:
-
Vectors
-
Holds
-
Diversions
-
Intercepts
-
Traffic
-
Surrounding
terrain
-
And many
others
Along the way, learn how cockpit automation can potentially help or
hinder while you and your crewmate work as a team to decide the best
way to fly the airplane. Softcover, illustrated, 8.5” x 11”, 168
pages.
