The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) administers oral as well as written exams for pilot certification and flight review. These exam guides teach applicants not only what to expect, but also how to exhibit subject mastery and confidence while under tough examiner scrutiny. In this five-book series, the most consistent questions asked in each particular exam are provided in a question-and-answer format, with a reference to the specific information source from which the answer may be derived immediately following each question line. Applicants facing the private, certified flight instructor, instrument, commercial, or multiengine oral exam will benefit from the topics discussed and the further study materials provided.

The Flight Instructor Manual uses over 1,000 full-color photos and illustrations to help you turn your passion for flying into your profession. The manual presents complete and concise explanations of training techniques that every pilot seeking a basic flight instructor certificate and/or an instrument or multi-engine instructor rating needs to know. Subjects are often expanded upon through the use of Discovery Insets, which are strategically placed throughout the chapters. POV Insets provide examples, from a flight instructor's point of view, of how learning and teaching concepts can be applied in real-world training situations.

Additionally, you can evaluate your understanding of material introduced in a particular section by completing the associated questions at the end of each chapter.
