Human Factors for the Private Pilot

By Stephen Walmsley and Stephen Walmsley

Every time a pilot takes to the air, there will be many small things that affect how well they perform, such as low oxygen levels or a high workload at a complex airport. Anything that makes it harder for the pilot to fly the aircraft can allow errors to creep in, such as missing a checklist item or flying too fast on approach, which can increase the risk of an accident. By understanding the wide range of human factors, pilots can ensure they fly to the best of their ability.

From the author of the popular Aviation Books Series, this book takes the reader deep into the world of human factors, with a particular focus on practical aviation, thereby linking science with the real world. Whether you are a new pilot exploring the topic in greater detail or a pilot who has been flying for countless years, it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of the range of factors that can affect your ability to fly an aircraft safely.
