Subjects covered in detail include an overall description of the aircraft, limitations, handling characteristics, and loading/performance data. All the information is gleaned from flying experiences by experts in the industry, and is presented in an easy-to-read format. Pilots will find each guide in the series an invaluable companion to the aircraft's Flight Manual and an excellent sourcebook for the aircraft's principal characteristics.
This guide is short, something like 120 or 130 pages, but packed full of information. A must-read (but certainly NOT the only book you'd want to read) for anyone learning about the Cessna 172.
