Suitable for EASA PPL, LAPL, NPPL and NPPL(M) - three axis

PPL 1 Flying Training, the first book in AFE's best selling PPL course series, follows the EASA PPL, LAPL and NPPL flying training syllabus and encompasses many issues concerning today’s pilots (wake turbulence, ATC procedures, transponders and radar, radio navigation, noise abatement, EFIS etc.) as well as those timeless airmanship issues that have always been vital to safe flying (lookout, carburettor icing, organising cockpit workload etc.). This book is presented in a straightforward manner, with no irrelevant theoretical material, and is illustrated throughout with diagrams, line drawings and photographs, including a step-by-step ‘patter’ of each flight exercise with internal and external views to match.

• Background Briefing for each flight exercise
