About this title

Synopsis

Used successfully by airlines to increase safety, Cockpit Resource Management (CRM) involves many principles which can be applied to pilots flying solo. This book explains how, using CRM techniques, private pilots can increase their flying proficiency and prevent accidents. Weaving actual accident case histories with an in-depth look at CRM philosophy, author Thomas P. Turner explains how to apply CRM to a single-pilot operator. CRM principles discussed include situational awareness, planning and thinking ahead, developing good communications skills, and enhancing decision-making skills. A volume in the TAB Practical Flying Series.
