This is the FAA's primary pilot resource for instrument flight
rules (IFR) covering everything pertinent to operating an aircraft
in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) or without reference
to outside visuals, relying solely on the information gleaned from
the cockpit. Readers will find chapters on the national airspace
system, the air traffic control system, human factors,
aerodynamics, flight instruments, flight maneuvers for IFR
operations, navigation, emergency operations, as well as helicopter
operations and more.
The material in this manual applies to both conventional
"steam-gauge" analog instrumentation and the "glass cockpit"
electronic flight displays found in advanced aircraft. Information
is well organized into separate coverage of the traditional
"6-pack" and discussions of pictorial "tape" displays. Advanced
systems are covered, including flight management systems, the
primary flight display (PFD) and multi-function display (MFD),
synthetic vision, and traffic advisory systems. The book also
features a synopsis of instrument clearance shorthand, as well as
an instrument training lesson guide.
The "Instrument Flying Handbook" is designed for use by flight
instructors, pilots preparing for the Instrument Rating FAA
Knowledge and Practical Exams, and instrument-rated pilots looking
for a refresher or preparing for an Instrument Proficiency Check
(IPC). Illustrated throughout with detailed, full-color drawings
and photographs; comprehensive glossary and index.
Purpose of the Regulatory Action-- This rulemaking proposes
operating requirements to allow small unmanned aircraft systems
(small UAS) to operate for non-hobby or non-recreational purposes.
A small UAS consists of a small unmanned aircraft (which, as
defined by statute, is an unmanned aircraft weighing less than 55
pounds3) and equipment necessary for the safe and efficient
operation of that aircraft. The FAA has accommodated
non-recreational small UAS use through various mechanisms, such as
special airworthiness certificates, exemptions, and certificates of
waiver or authorization (COA). This proposed rule would be the next
phase of integrating small UAS into the NAS.
