In the third book of the PPL Course series the emphasis is again on practical and safety related advice, beyond merely covering the exam syllabus and theoretical material. Profusely illustrated throughout with many full colour diagrams, illustrations and photographs, the meteorology section has been written with the assistance of the Met. Office, and includes the latest advances such as interpreting satellite pictures and Internet services.
The navigation section includes detailed and fully-illustrated information on how to plan and conduct a VFR flight, including an illustrated map reading flight and the latest map symbology. Radio navigation theory is also covered together with all other JAA PPL and NPPL syllabus requirements. The navigation section also shows the reader how to fully integrate navigation and meteorology for accurate pre-flight planning and safe in-flight decision making.
