About Scenario-Based Training With X-Plane And
Product Description Fly toward pilot certification with these real-world scenario exercises Although PC-based flight simulations have been available for 30 years, many pilots, instructors, and flight schools don't understand how best to use these tools in real-world flight training and pilot proficiency programs. This invaluable reference bridges the gap between simulation tools and real-world situations by presenting hands-on, scenario-based exercises and training tips for the private pilot certificate and instrument rating. As the first of its kind based on FAA-Industry Training Standards (FITS), this book steers its focus on a scenario-based curriculum that emphasizes real-world situations. Experienced pilot and author Bruce Williams ultimately aims to engage the pilot, reinforce the "realistic" selling point of PC-based flight simulations, while also complementing the FAA-approved FITS syllabi. Serves as essential reading for pilots who want to make effective use of simulation in their training while expanding their skill level and enjoyment of flying Covers private pilot real-world scenarios and instrument rating scenarios Includes a guide to recommended websites and other resources Features helpful charts as well as a glossary You'll take off towards pilot certification with this invaluable book by your side. From the Author Here's are links to a Q&A with me about Scenario-Based Training from the March 23, 2012 issue of the General Aviation News.

While there's no substitute for a qualified instructor and practice in a real airplane, PC-based simulations can help you develop the skills that build confidence. When you work through this book's scenario-based exercises using either X-Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator, you'll be better prepared for certification as a private pilot with an instrument rating. You're also going to have a lot of fun. Scenario-Based Training is an interactive, guided tour through the process of learning to think like a pilot. With this book, you can Learn from the FAA/Industry Training Standards (FITS) approach to flight training Explore official pilot handbooks and guides from top aviation training and safety experts Perfect fundamental flying skills with real-world scenarios Experience computer equipment and accessories that enhance PC-based flight simulations Find out how to install, set up, and optimize X-Plane and FSX Gain experience dealing with a wide variety of variables, including weather, terrain, airport environments, and equipment failures Practice whenever you like Go to www.wiley.com/go/flightsimulatortraining to find resources for setting up and using X-Plane and FSX, situation and flight files, official FAA pilot-training handbooks, charts to help you plan your flights, and much more.
