This high quality book offers a unique learning method from which you can comprehend Radio Navigation with ease and become a more proficient and confident pilot. With 1200 full colour briliantly clear illustrations all the various problems of radio navigation are covered and will be of great help to Students, Instructors, Commercial Pilots and all users of Flight Simulators.
'With this book you will learn not only to interpret the indication on your instrument with the position of the aircraft in relation to the radio beacon but also "to oneself". The instrument indication and the chart excerpt with the drawn in aircraft and its position right next to it perfectly teach a spatial perception and the ability to fly according to IFR. This is also the first book for VFR pilots which explains in plain and understandable manner the pilot's navigational environment. Large colored illustrations provide an enjoyable reading of the book. Many drawings clarify the connection between practice and theory or ease the interpretation of one's own position. Especially the approaches like ILS, NDB-DME or just NDB are well illustrated. Numerous exercises in the appendix are a perfect supplement to the training material.'
