Laughing With The Wind by Dean Zakos, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

After a private pilot passes the written exam and check ride, the real learning begins. Laughing with the Wind is a collection of articles and stories written by a general aviation pilot for general aviation pilots, filled with useful information for both seasoned and new pilots. Part I deals with less common emergencies: ill or agitated passenger, loss of power on takeoff, asymmetric flap failure, or blowing a tire on landing. Other articles examine circumstances leading to emergencies such as night disorientation, neglecting to pay attention to details, or deferring to a more senior pilot. Part II invites the reader to pull up a chair and be a part of some “hangar flying." Many of the subjects in Part II receive little or no coverage in the wider aviation media. How does a GA pilot cope with fear? Contend with ethical challenges? Know when it is time to stop flying?Laughing with the Wind is about a passion for flying – flying safely and flying well. | Laughing With The Wind by Dean Zakos, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
