Håndbog for elementær flyvning.

The first revision in more than a decade of the trusted, step-by-step pocket resource for building, maintaining, and repairing all-metal aircraft.

Updated and expanded. The best way to learn the aviation maintenance language.

Known as the Red Maneuvers Book, this learning and teaching aid covers all manoeuvres for Private, Commercial, and Flight Instructor Certificates for low-wing aircraft such as Pipers and Mooneys, complying with current practical test standards and regulations. Topics covered include manoeuvring during slow flight, power-off stalls, lazy eights, spins, short-field approaches and landings, and steep turns and spirals. Maneuvers are shown in full-page spreads, so visual information is absorbed all at once.
