This Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publication introduces pilots to the fundamental knowledge necessary for all levels of certification, from the beginning stages to advanced certificates. It covers a wide range of topics and provides a solid understanding of aerodynamic theory to help pilots earn their certificate and operate an aircraft safely. Whether preparing for a Remote, Sport, Recreational, Private, Commercial, or Flight Instructor Pilot Certificate, this book serves as a comprehensive guide to passing the FAA Knowledge Exam and Practical Test (check-ride).

This comprehensive guide starts with an introduction to aviation and its history, then delves into the role of the FAA, the requirements for obtaining pilot certifications, choosing a flight school and instructor, and the exams necessary for certification. Key topics covered include aeronautical decision-making, aircraft construction, principles and mechanics of flight, flight instruments and controls, and relevant documents and manuals. Other important subjects include aircraft performance and maintenance, weather patterns and services, airport procedures, airspace regulations, navigation techniques, and aeromedical concerns. Handy appendices include a glossary, index, and helpful lists for acronyms, abbreviations, NOTAM contractions, and airport signage and markings.

This 2023 Edition presents the newest procedures, equipment, techniques, regulations, and National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) recommendations in the aviation industry and serves as a crucial reference for the FAA Airman Certification Standards (ACS). Updates include information on drugs and their effects on flight, nontowered airport operations, and limitations on attitude indicator pitch and bank. With comprehensive chapter summaries and abundant, detailed illustrations and photographs in full-color, this handbook serves as a comprehensive "aviation encyclopedia" for pilots to enhance their knowledge.
