STUDENT PILOT'S FLIGHT MANUAL

This is an extremely helpful book; quite well-written and easy to understand. Definately recommended

Totally Tops!

My instructor suggested for me to buy this book. Although I am still getting lessons, this book is a great asset to what I'm learning in the air.

Great book

Informative, articulate, and carefully edited -- a must have reference for aspiring pilots. Especially impressive is Kershner's ability to avoid the most common pitfalls of writing technical material: the text is tight, complete, succinct, and perhaps most surprisingly, a real treat to read.

Great Tool

This was a great tool for my flight instruction. Kershner has a way of explaining things that is better than the other books I was able to find. I read this on my own instead of ground school and past my written and practical - so, it worked!

As a flight instructor, this book is one of the best out

I recommend this book to all my primary student
