There is no doubt that this book provides an excellent basic understanding of the human body, its limitations, the psychological processes and how they interact with the aviation environment. I am currently studying for my ATPL Ground Exams and I found this book to be an invaluable aid. It is equally useful for those studying for the PPL and for all pilots who would like to be reminded of their physiological and psychological limitations.
General aviation, june 2002 Used book in Good Condition. This book was first published when the UK Civil Aviation Authority introduced an examination in human performance and limitations for all private and professional pilot licences. The coverage of basic aviation psychology has been greatly expanded, and the section on aviation physiology now includes topics on the high altitude environment and on health maintenance.

A Human Error Approach to Aviation Accident Analysis: The Human Factors Analysis and Classification System
E. Human error is implicated in nearly all aviation accidents, yet most investigation and prevention programs are not designed around any theoretical framework of human error. Navy, army and the canadian Defense Force, who currently utilize the HFACS system during aviation accident investigations. Finally, this book serves as an excellent reference guide for many safety professionals and investigators already in the field.
Widely disseminated among military and civilian organizations, HFACS encompasses all aspects of human error, including the conditions of operators and elements of supervisory and organizational failure. In addition, the book will be incorporated into courses offered by Transportation Safety International and the Southern California Safety Institute.
The book is also targeted for students attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University which has satellite campuses throughout the world and offers a course in human factors accident investigation for many of its majors. Specifically, the book serves as the main textbook for a course in aviation accident investigation taught by one of the authors at the University of Illinois.

Aerodynamics for Naval Aviators: NAVWEPS 00-80T-80 FAA Handbooks series
The information in "aerodynamics for Naval Aviators" is applicable to flight training, reciprocating and turbine-powered airplanes, transition training, and general flying operations. It offers the elements of both theory and application, covering basic aerodynamics, ground effect, operation strength limitations, airplane performance, stability and control, high-speed aerodynamics, such as the region of reversed command, and the application of aerodynamics to specific problems of flying, effects of ice and frost, wind shear, and collision avoidance.
Also included are an index and a list of selected references. Aviation Supplies Academics. Navy and revised in 1965. A long-established U. S. Air force as well as by the faa as a source reference for their own publications, for more than 50 years this textbook has been a definitive source that communicates the complexities of applied aerodynamics and aeronautical engineering for both the beginner and the experienced pilot.
Flight Theory and Aerodynamics: A Practical Guide for Operational Safety
Aviation Supplies Academics. The discussion focuses on the concepts themselves, propeller crafts, using only enough algebra and trigonometry to illustrate key concepts without getting bogged down in complex calculations, and then delves into the specific applications for jets, and helicopters. Ashgate Publishing.
As aircraft grow more complex and the controls become more involved, an intuitive grasp of the physics of flight is your most valuable tool for operational safety. Modern flight control systems are becoming more complex and more varied between aircrafts, making it essential for pilots to understand the aerodynamics of flight before they ever step into a cockpit.
This updated third edition includes new chapters on Flight Environment, component photos, Aircraft Structures, with updated craft examples, and UAS-UAV Flight Theory, and diagrams throughout. Used book in Good Condition. Review the basic physics of flight understand the applications to specific types of aircraft Learn why takeoff and landing entail special considerations Examine the force concepts behind stability and control As a pilot, and gravity during flight maneuvers, weight, takeoff and landing, load factors, high- or low-speed flight, stalls, your job is to balance the effects of design, and more.
Faa-aligned questions and regulatory references help reinforce important concepts, and additional worked problems provide clarification on complex topics.
