The Airplane Flying Handbook is designed as a technical manual to introduce basic pilot skills and knowledge that are essential for piloting airplanes. It provides information on transition to other airplanes and the operation of various airplane systems. It is developed by the Flight Standards Service, Airman Testing Standards Branch, in cooperation with various aviation educators and industry. This handbook conforms to pilot training and certification concepts established by the FAA. There are different ways of teaching, as well as performing flight procedures and maneuvers, and many variations in the explanations of aerodynamic theories and principles. Includes the basic airplane engine principles (turboprop engine and jet engine), basic engine maintenance, efficiency and many more.

Thank you. I have found at your website what I have been looking for. I shall be delighted and grateful to see more technical items especially on electronics, avionics, small and micro i/c engines,pyrotechnics, amateur radio(HAM),GPS and astronomy. Full constructional details with schematics and circuit diagrams are welcome. I am a make-it and build-it-yourself man. Thank you once again!
