FIRST STEPS IN PRACTICAL IFR

This book is a collection of information essential for students beginning their IFR flight training. It contains over 100 references to source regulations, relevant online publications, and professional journals, some of which are cited or quoted as necessary. The book also cites aircraft operating manuals, navigation systems, navigation documentation, and more. However, all of these publications are cited solely for illustrative purposes, which are likely to be encountered by future pilots on a daily basis. This book is not intended to replace, duplicate, or explain them. The book's content reflects the author's experience, both in airline IFR flights and in initial IFR training. Elements of the book have been added gradually over many years, in response to the students' need of clarifying IFR basic rules. Although many of the references concern training in Polish airspace, the content stays relevant for most European countries.
