ASA - Instrument Flying Handbook

The ASA - Instrument Flying Handbook is the FAA’s primary resource for pilots operating under instrument flight rules (IFR). This comprehensive guide covers everything necessary for flying in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) or without visual references, relying solely on cockpit instruments. Essential for flight instructors, pilots preparing for the Instrument Rating FAA Knowledge and Practical Exams, and instrument-rated pilots seeking a refresher or preparing for an Instrument Proficiency Check (IPC). Key Features: In-Depth Coverage: Includes chapters on the national airspace system, air traffic control system, human factors, aerodynamics, flight instruments, IFR flight maneuvers, navigation, emergency operations, helicopter operations, and more. Dual Instrumentation: Applies to both conventional "steam gauge" analog instrumentation and modern "glass cockpit" electronic flight displays. Provides separate coverage of the traditional "6-pack" and pictorial "tape" displays
