    Blue print book for private pilots. Being a pilot is about preparing, organizing and taking that info and applying it to real life situations. This book from start to finish allows an aspiring private pilot to efficiently learn and gather information to gain the most out of the private pilot experience. This is my vote for best book for private pilots as it is the first step in a private pilots course of action to become familiar with all available information
