Everything Explained for the Professional Pilot (Newest Edition)
The ULTIMATE REFERENCE BOOK that explains all aspects of aviation from props to heavy jets. 430 (8.5 x 11) pages crammed with virtually EVERY scrap of information essential and necessary for EVERY PILOT. All that knowledge you wish you could have at your finger tips all the time, and many things you never even thought about. Fun to read and yet excruciatingly detailed.
You will be AMAZED!
Don't waste hundreds of dollars on a library of other books. This is the real deal. Everything in one place, in PLAIN ENGLISH, and super easy to find!
This is the best aviation textbook ever written. The explanations are so well written, thought out and straight to the point unlike most study references where you have to dig to find the key points. I recommend this book to all of my flight training students as well as other pilots that try to keep sharp.

The Best
Most informative and helpful aviation book ever written. It’s also funny at times.

PASS!
Outdated, written in a cluttered format, and full of foolish and unprofessional commentary. I do not recommend.

Poor form
Threw it in the garbage can. He isn’t funny and material is outdated.
I built this kit as a teenager most of 55 years ago. The kit is essentially the same, but now they’re laser cut. In the past, the panels were die-cut, sometimes you get one done with a dull cutter. That took a lot of extra time, carefully re-scoring everything with a narrow Exacto blade so the pieces wouldn’t split. This kit is so crisp, it’s a joy to assemble. It’s fun seeing old reflexes come to life while assembling this baby. I only have the FW-190 from those years, but also built this one (the Hellcat), the Spitfire, Me-109, and the P-40. Good times!
Pilots HQ had the best price on the pump needed to replace the one on my plane that was failing. It actually shipped ahead of schedule, arrived quickly to my IA who was ale to install it and get me back in the air in a timely manner. Great service and price.
