A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This well regarded series for students taking the commercial and airline transport pilot licences has been substantially revised to bring it into line with the new European Joint Aviation Requirements (JARs) for flight crew licensing. Each volume deals with the material required by one of the new JAR papers.

This volume covers the General Navigation paper with the exception of the principles, construction and errors of compasses which are dealt with in the new Instruments volume. Compared with the Navigation section of the old Volume 3 (Navigation General and Instruments) there is much new material, including navigation plotting procedures, the use of navigation computers and a very detailed survey of all charts encountered by modern professional and amateur pilots.

The opportunity has been taken to simplify the presentation of information so as to aid revision work. Many test questions and answers have been included, based on the JAR syllabus.
