Editorial Reviews
Product Description:
Flight Discipline is the complete tool kit for any aviator, whether military, commercial, or recreational, to develop the crack discipline needed to be a safe and effective aviator. Major Tony Kern analyses the causes of poor flight discipline, gives chilling case studies of the consequences, and lays out a plan for individual improvement. Key words are italicized and review questions included for each chapter. An unequalled guide to this mainspring of good piloting.
Customer Reviews
A must for pilots by Junior
its a must for the pilots from airlines. it gives you a lot of psichological support to understand why pilots do somethings that causes an accident.
Great reading -very helpful by Dr. J. F. M. Oldham
This is an enthralling book about risk management on the flight deck. Anyone who needs to minimise risk in other professional situations will also find it helpful. Good energetic writing, lots of fascinating stories, makes managing risk exciting.
Best Aviation Human Factors Book I’ve Read! by John
Tony Kern has left no rock unturned as he microscopes the complex topic of human factors down to its very essence — flight discipline!
In sum, “there are old pilots, and bold pilots…but no old bold pilots!” Kern’s book, unlike any other I’ve read, will equip you to become that “old pilot”!
As a flight instructor, I recommend this book to ALL my students because if the principles in this book are applied, it is the perfect preventative medicine to most pilot error accidents!
REALLY 4.5 STARS by Steve Dietrich
An excellent book about the essential discipline of flight.
I had three minor problems with the book which would not keep me from recommending it to others as a must read. I will focus on these rather than the positives because the other reviewers have done an excellent job
Several incidents would benefit from a little more data which would give the reader a better understanding of the situation.
I found the discussion of the Ron Brown crash implausable. That a crew with limited experience in ADF flying would not have selected the beacon at the airport which lay ahead and defined the MAP.
Finally , a nunber of the incidents are duplications of those in A Darker Shade of Blue. My guess is that there are enough lumps of smoking aluminum around to offer fresh meat for each of the book ie The AA 965.
These minor comments aside it is a must read
