Continued VFR into IFR conditions persists as the most frequent cause of weatherrelated accidents. This book provides the barebones essentials of instrument flying technique and procedures so urgently needed in order to cope with and survive an inadvertent encounter with lowvisibility IFR conditions.For this 'IFR survival guide,' Richard Taylor has adapted the key lifesaving elements of IFR discipline to the average VFR pilot's capabilities. Here are complete instructions in a simplified 'handsoff' flying technique that minimizes the risks of loss of control when outside visual clues are lost. The physiological causes of spatial disorientation are explained, giving valuable insights into IFR's most treacherous aspect. A chapter contributed by noted pscyhologist and flight instructor Dr. Jerald Cockrell tells how to control fear and panic in the cockpit.Should air traffic control assistance be necessary, IFR for VFR Pilots tells how to communicate effectively and how to use ATC to fly out of a lowvisibility predicament. The book guides you stepbystep through the essential procedures of DF steers, radar vectors, and other ATC 'assists.' VOR and DF fixes, VOR approaches, lowvisibility landing technique, even the missed approach, are clearly explained with typical Taylor expertise.IFR for VFR Pilots is a must for all fairweather fliers, however proficient and cautious they may be. Its nononsense approach has a lot to say to the seasoned instrumentrated pilot as well.
