Book description
Get ready to take flight as two certified flight instructors guide you
through the pilot ratings as it is done in the real world, starting with
Sport Pilot training, then Private Pilot, followed by the Instrument
Rating, Commercial Pilot, and Air Transport Pilot. They cover the skills
of flight, how to master Flight Simulator, and how to use the software
as a learning tool towards your pilot's license. More advanced topics
