Previous editions of this classic guided tens of thousands through the often unnerving process of getting their piloting licenses. This revised edition continues to provide encouragement and practical information, and adds new material on the recreational pilot license, the primary aircraft certification program, the new airspace designation system, and other subjects of interest to potential pilots. The book also reflects the most recent changes in regulations, testing, and procedures. This unique approach thoroughly encompasses all the information student pilots need to learn. The book takes the guesswork out of learning to fly by anticipating the potential pilot's questions and clearly presenting words and pictures to help dispel doubts and build confidence.
