Powered Parachute Flying Handbook. By

The Powered Parachute Flying Handbook is designed as a technical manual for applicants who are preparing for a powered parachute category rating and for currently certificated powered parachute pilots who wish to improve their knowledge. Certificated flight instructors will find this handbook a valuable training aid, since detailed coverage of emergency procedures, components and systems, aerodynamics, powerplants, ground operations, flight maneuvers, airport operations, and aeronautical decision making is included. Topics, such as navigation and communication, use of flight information publications, and regulations are available in other Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publications.
