‘Visualized Flight Maneuvers for High- and
Low-Wing Aircraft’
Book seeks to simplify practical test maneuvers

IF YOU LEARN best by watching your flight instructor demonstrate a
maneuver, you’re a visual learner. A newly revised pair of books from ASA
will complement that toy airplane your instructor keeps close at hand to
help illustrate a discussion on turns about a point.
Visualized Flight Maneuvers for High-Wing Aircraft and its counterpart,
Visualized Flight Maneuvers for Low-Wing Aircraft, cover all the flight
maneuvers required for the sport, private, commercial, and flight instructor certificates. The softcover books include fold-out pages that depict
each maneuver, along with the objective of the task and the pertinent
practical test standards. The new editions reflect the current PTS, including emergency descent and accelerated stalls. The books are spiral bound
and indexed, and at 64 pages, they’re easily tucked into a flight bag. Both
titles are available in eBook format.
PRICE: $19.95 (book); $14.95 (eBook)
