This aviation manual stresses the importance of understanding and gleaning the most from weather and air traffic control (ATC) systems. Pilots are guided through common misconceptions about weather dangers with solid advice and accurate examples for improvement. The effects of wind and storms and the role of the ATC are discussed, and a basic weather course is provided. The most frequent decisions pilots make when they are caught in weather are explained, and all options are presented so that pilots can find their way out of undesirable conditions.

From the Back Cover:
'Despite all the tribulations, the recession in the industry, and the lack of a lot of new airplanes, the general aviation airplane remains one of the finest personal or business possessions. The freedom that it affords is unlike anything else.... And all you have to do to make it work is learn to deal with the systems, weather and air traffic control.'
