Product: Airline Transport Pilot and Type Rating for Airplane (FAA-S-ACS-11): Airman Certification Standards
Description: EFFECTIVE JUNE 28, 2019

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publishes the Airline Transport Pilot and Type Rating for Airplane Airman Certification Standards (ACS) document to communicate the aeronautical knowledge, risk management, and flight proficiency standards for airline transport pilot certification (ATP) and type rating certification in the airplane category and the following classes: single-engine land, single-engine sea, multiengine land and multiengine sea. This ACS incorporates and supersedes the previous Airline Transport Pilot and Aircraft Type Rating Practical Test Standards (PTS) for Airplane, FAA-S-8081-5.

The FAA views the ACS as the foundation of its transition to a more integrated and systematic approach to airman certification. The ACS is part of the safety management system (SMS) framework that the FAA uses to mitigate risks associated with airman certification training and testing. Specifically, the ACS, associated guidance, and test question components of the airman certification system are constructed around the four functional components of an SMS:

•Safety Policy that defines and describes aeronautical knowledge, flight proficiency, and risk managementas integrated components of the airman certification system;

•Safety Risk Management processes through which internal and external stakeholders identify and evaluate regulatory changes, safety recommendations, or other factors that require modification of airmantesting and training materials;

•Safety Assurance processes to ensure the prompt and appropriate incorporation of changes arising fromnew regulations and safety recommendations; and

•Safety Promotion in the form of ongoing engagement with both external stakeholders (e.g., the aviation training industry) and FAA policy divisions.

The FAA developed this ACS along with associated guidance and updated reference material in collaboration with a diverse group of aviation training experts. The goal is to drive a systematic approach to all components of the airman certification system, including knowledge test question development and conduct of the practical test. The FAA acknowledges and appreciates the many hours that these aviation experts have contributed toward this goal. This level of collaboration, a hallmark of a robust safety culture, strengthens and enhances aviation safety at every level of the airman certification system.

Product: Go for Shakedown
Description: Go For Shakedown follows my experiences through Afghanistan. It is a fictionalized dialogue between characters based on true events. It aims to capture the human side of war from the absurd situations to the complexity of actual helicopter missions; all through the development of about a dozen characters and their interactions and reactions both on the ground and in the air.

Shakedown is a call-sign for the helicopter. The helicopter is a civilian pattern helicopter that was converted into escort gunships by Canada in order to get the job done. A unique task since Canada is the only NATO country to NOT have helicopter gunships. Despite this limitation, the crews in Shakedown got the job done and were revered for their lethal capability yet always prevailing humanity.

Whenever ground troops asked for support, theywere affirmatively answered with, Go for Shakedown."

Product: ATPL(A) Air Law (PilotBooks Book 14)
Description: Waypoints PilotBooks Volume Fourteen - ATPL(A) Air Law provides the regulatory information required to develop your knowledge and understanding of the rules which guide and limit New Zealand’s air transport operations. Our approach is to give you the applicable CAR, AIP and/or other reference for each of the AC61-7 syllabus items and where appropriate we have added comments which are intended to clarify, expand, focus and/or summarise the reference as applicable. Studying the manual will prepare you for the examination and the knowledge gained will make you a better, safer and more confident pilot.
While this book focuses on the New Zealand requirements for ATPL students, it will have high value for student pilots studying for the exams of other regulators in many countries.

Product: ESAMI AERONAUTICI ..... PIU' FACILI: (EASA License - LMA - IFR - PPL - CPL - ATPL - CTA - ENAV Academy) (Italian Edition)
Description: Il testo, giunto al quinto aggiornamento (con l’aggiunta dei moduli M08- Aerodinamica di base e M02- Fisica) è ormai un “vademecum” di riferimento per facilitare la preparazione agli esami aeronautici nei vari settori (esami teorici IFR / CPL / ATPL ) e renderli più fruibili.
I quasi 2000 quesiti, unitamente alle proposte di test, mantengono sempre il criterio delle domande commentate ed affrontano i vari moduli dei programmi. Seguono puntualmente le risposte che servono a mettere a fuoco gli argomenti per fornire un orientamento sui possibili quiz d'esame riferiti ai medesimi temi. Per ogni modulo vengono forniti anche i suggerimenti sui possibili testi, da affiancare allo studio, per aumentare la conoscenza e la padronanza dei concetti.
Il testo è rivolto alla preparazione di tutti gli esami contenenti argomenti aeronautici, in prevalenza finalizzati al conseguimento delle Licenze professionali ma non solamente. Esso, infatti, risulta efficace anche per altri esami e/o selezioni, come ad es. esami di Stato Ist. Tecnici Aeronautici, I.T. Trasporti e Logistica, esami universitari nelle facoltà di Ing. Aeronautica, esami per le licenze ENAV ed ENAC).
