For student pilots or rated pilots looking for refresher training, Flying the Private Pilot Flight Test provides the information and fundamentals necessary for student pilots to perform at their very best. Whether you fly for recreation, to expand your business capabilities, or to eventually become a professional pilot with a commercial airline, the first step is to pass the private pilot flight test. Ron Fowler flies you through the test as if he is sitting beside you in the cockpit, giving some insight into what your examiner is thinking and looking for. With his warm and personal style, Mr. Fowler talks you through Maneuvering at Critically Low Airspeeds, Ground Reference Maneuvers, Takeoffs and Climbs, Approaches and Landings, Emergency Procedures, Turn Maneuvers, Flight by Instrument Reference, and Between the Maneuvers. Since knowledge is the foundation upon which you build your piloting skills, Fowler concludes with Suggested Reading, a list of books that should be in all pilots' libraries.
