Taking and passing an FAA Knowledge Exam is required for earning the Private Pilot, Sport Pilot, and Recreational Pilot certificates. Using the FAA exam as the premise for learning, Gardner applies practical information so readers are not only prepared for the tests, but also for the cockpit. He augments the required aeronautical knowledge by giving specific tips and techniques, checklists, mnemonic devices, and sound advice from personal experience. A full-color foldout example of a sectional chart is provided inside the back cover for use with the numerous interactive exercises throughout the book. Each chapter concludes with sample FAA Knowledge Exam questions. A comprehensive glossary and index are included as well. This practical application of the FAA Knowledge Exam is not available in any other text!

Included throughout the book are internet links for useful aviation websites, weather charts, flight planning, etc., with a section showing examples of online weather sources and more. Also included is information on "FITS" (FAA/Industry Training Standards), scenario-based training, single-pilot resource management, and learner-centered grading. This is a convenient, comprehensive source for this information—everything complete in one book!

With Gardner's approachable yet concise writing style, readers are able to quickly grasp the subjects, pass the required tests and checkrides, and gain an operational understanding of flight they can take straight to the cockpit.

The Complete Private Pilot works as a companion textbook to ASA's Private Pilot Virtual Test Prep DVD Ground School. An integrated Flight/Ground Syllabus for both Part 141 and 61 programs is also available to accompany the textbook. Foreword by Richard Taylor.

非常实用，对学习入门的飞行知识有较好的帮助

Covers all the necessary topics for the Private Pilot Knowledge Test.
Does so in a readable and clear manner.
Very good value for money compared with the "glossy" training book...and also a great deal lighter to carry around!

I just started reading both The Complete Private Pilot (TCPP) and The Pilot's Manual:Ground School (TPMGS) in preparation to attend flight school. Please note that I have just begun reading corresponding topics in both books. Weights and balances. Both books use an example of an aircraft with differing wing weight loads but making the same 60 degree bank turn. TCPP'S weight example(page 8-2) is 2500 lbs.. TCPP states that under a load factor 2G the gain is only 1000 lbs while TPMGS's example(page 235) is an aircraft weighing 3000 lbs has an additional gain of 3000 lbs under the same load factor, double it's wing level load.
Do you see the difference? TPMGS claims it doubles under a 2G turn load factor while TCPP suggests only a 40% gain.

Who do I believe? Which book do I rely on for accurate information? Remember, I just started reading these books today. I truly hope this is the only discrepancy I find.

I am enjoying 'The Complete Private Pilot' very much. It is clearly written with numerous pictures and diagrams, and easy to study. I would recommend it to everyone that is learning to fly.

got what i wanted fast!

Excellent reference.
