Written for pilots of all skill levels and interest, this book explores common misconceptions regarding piloting risks and shows what the actual risks are and why. Reflective insight is the basis for this book's program for risk management, sound decision-making, and judgement. With the bringing together of varied experiences and different perspectives, pilots can examine the risks in each phase of flight: pre-flight, takeoff, en-route portions of VFR and IFR flight, approach and arrival, and landings.
