Overview
|
Self-Reliant Pilot was written to provide a multitude of aviation objectives. First and foremost it was written to provide an aviation book on the subject of flying and landing taildragger aircraft in remote and challenging parts of Alaska and showing all the wonders of this type of flying. It shows the inspiration of flying and landing in the mountains on gravel bars, on glaciers and on the beaches in fjords. It displays the magnificent wildlife found in Alaska. It shows the camaraderie of flying in Alaska. Self-Reliant Pilot provides useful information on flying and landing ski-equipped aircraft in winter on snow covered terrain and short field landing operations in summer on Alaskan Bushwheels. Self-Reliant Pilot provides a complete explanation of who are the amazing elite Alaskan pilots along with their training program. It discusses the substantial number of aircraft accidents in Alaska and provides ways to greatly lower them to acceptable levels. The book was written to help fledgling pilots find alternative ways for becoming the best pilot they can be after receiving their Private Pilot License. The advanced training provided in the book is the most beneficial for General Aviation pilots that exist. One final and highly beneficial objective of Self-Reliant Pilot was to provide a global link to General Aviation. The best-trained pilots in Alaska and GA Pilots have long been in two separate worlds. They both have their own training programs and rarely talk to each other about them. Self-Reliant Pilot shows an important link between these pilots and provides an opportunity for an exchange of aviation information. After reading the book, GA pilots will be able to incorporate Alaska’s elite pilot techniques and strategies into their flying program for increasing pilot proficiency and significantly reducing aircraft accidents. GA pilots that never land off-airport can still benefit from an understanding and a desire to improve their aircraft skills by incorporating Alaskan pilot’s learning into their everyday flying program. Self-Reliant Pilot provides a comprehensive background for making this connection. Why would any pilot not want to elevate their pilot proficiency and lessen their aircraft accident rate? Pilots that adopt this advanced training will recognize its value as the most cherished event in their flying careers. |
