This training manual gives both newer and professional pilots a solid foundation in transitioning from a single-engine aeroplane to the more powerful but trickier multiengine craft. This step-by-step learning process, combined with a flight instructor's guidance and the included multiengine course outline, will lead to a deeper understanding of what was previously unrecorded flying wisdom. The normal and unusual operations of a multiengine craft are explained, including performance details and instrument flying regulations operations. At every stage, the text is presented as a real flight lesson, making this a perfect companion to the student pilot's training with an instructor.

Night flight is one of the most pleasant forms of flight. Every city looks good at night. The sparkling lights, stars, moon and reflections combine to produce a spectacle many only dream about. However, night flight requires different technique, perspective, and considerations than day operations. The aircraft must be flown with reference to the flight instruments, and the outside visual references take on new importance while at the same time providing different illusions. Night flight can be a test for even the most experienced pilot.

Veteran author David Robson prepares readers for the unique considerations involved with night operations with information and practical techniques on:

• Flying on instruments
• Weather
• Human factors, including night vision, fatigue, hypoxia, and more
• The regulations governing night operations
• Preflight preparations
• Aircraft and airport lighting
• Cross-country planning, navigating using both pilotage and dead reckoning
• Takeoffs and landings
• Emergency situations
