Summary: The Instrument Flight Training Manual by Prof.Inst.Courses
Review: As an instrument student I started with the book by Kershner. I had lots of trouble and switched to this book and found a world of difference. In particular, holding patterns, entrances to holds, etc. The illustrations are simple yet very effective. This book is excellent so far!

Summary: One of the best books available on instrument flying
Review: I am an instrument flight instructor, and I used this book while training for my Instrument-Instructor rating, and I also selected this as the text for my instrument students. It is clearly written and easy to read (not your average textbook "dry" reading....) I have tried other instrument flying books, and this is, by far, the best one I've found.

Summary: A first rate practical instrument reference manual.
Review: This manual has been a part of my recommended reading for instrument pilots for years and required reading for pilots who are training for the instrument rating or for instrument instructor applicants. The material is sufficient to acheive either of these ratings without overloading the applicant with the typical "fluff", which normally leads to confussion rather than clearification.

Mr. Dogan has organized the necessary basic instrument information in a manner that uses the FAA suggested "building block" method of instruction. He makes it easy for the instructor to follow a training outline and allows the student to absorb small bite size bits of information, arrange those bits into understandable usable procedures, and then to correllate them into a meaningful operational pattern of flying that provides for complete and safe operations.

The use of "To the CFI-I" at the end of each chapter is particularily helpful for the Instrument Instructor as he or she progresses through the flight training with a student. At the very least, these sections develop disscussion areas for the training environment.
