The National Association of Flight Instructors (NAFI) reports that several Certified Flight Instructors have achieved new accreditation as NAFI Master Flight Instructors, while several others have renewed their Master status.

Newcastle, WA-This new book from ASA is an essential resource for pilots seeking to thoroughly understand the human element and inherent physiological aspects of flight-as well as the machine and weather-critical for safe flight.

Being a safe pilot requires more than completing flight training and staying current. Full competency comes from the ability of a pilot to develop a keen awareness of the physiological aspects of flying, as well as those that influence workload and fatigue, decision making, and situational awareness. The Pilot Medical Handbook was compiled as a guide for study in these areas. With the Medical Handbook for Pilots Advisory Circular (AC 67-2) long discontinued, this new handbook is the only printed resource available with a collection of applicable FAA and Civil Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI) documents, articles and reports.

Pilots can use the plentiful information in this handbook to help them make consistent, informed go/no-go and inflight decisions. Soft cover, full-color illustrations, bibliography, 8-3/8" x 10-7/8", 100 pages.

Topics Include:    

Assessing and determining personal minimums
Medical certification questions and answers
Stress management
Information for pilots considering LASIK surgery
Visual illusions and spatial disorientation
Flying safely with passengers
