Flying Competent: Private Pilot

di Matthew Dowell (Autore)

Matthew Dowell, 2026

You passed the test. Now keep getting it right. A licence tells the world that on one day you flew to a standard. It does not say how you will decide about the weather on a marginal Saturday, what you will do with a nervous passenger, or how well you will land after a long gap. Those are decisions and habits, and they can be learned. Flying Competent: Private Pilot takes the ideas that airline training built around threat and error management and the nine core competencies, and puts them in the world you fly in: club aeroplanes, one pilot, mixed weather and mixed experience, with no first officer to catch a slip. Inside: The nine competencies in plain English, one chapter at a time Fuel, weather and airspace: three decisions that are hard to undo Personal minimums, turn-back points and the briefing that makes turning back easy Eleven real general aviation incidents from published UK AAIB reports, read from the pilot's side Currency, rust and the long gap; using your instructor well For student pilots, new pilots, club pilots and the instructors who fly with them. This book is a personal work and is not issued by, or on behalf of, any regulator or employer. It is not a course of training. Capt. Matthew Dowell is an airline training captain and examiner. Volume 2 of the Flying Competent series.
