AeroCourse requires you have up-to-date workbooks for the seminars and strongly recommends Aviation& Meteorology: weather fundamentals as a reference for both IFR and ATPL study. In addition to these materials there are other helpful references and supplies. These can be obtained from Aviation bookstores near you or online:
Flight Calculator
The Whiz Wheel or Professional Flight Computer for flight calculations.
Instrument Procedure Manual
The new Instrument Procedures Manual is a thorough revision, with expanded content, to this long-established and ubiquitous title. It provides students, as well as experienced pilots, with information on today’s aircraft, satellite and ground-based instrument systems, departure, en-route and approach procedures, and air traffic control regulations. Every phase of IFR flight is discussed in terms of its safety and efficiency. This publication is also beneficial to the helicopter pilot, covering theory and application of helicopter attitude instrument flying.
