ASA The Flight Instructor's Manual (Softcover) | ASA-FM-CFI-6

The Flight Instructor's Manual is an invaluable reference for flight instructor applicants and serves as an indispensable guide for both new and experienced instructors alike. Both experienced and newly certified CFIs can turn to this excellent resource for practical guidance on the problems students and more advanced pilots will encounter throughout flight training.

This sixth edition, edited by William K. Kershner's son William C. Kershner — himself a certified commercial flight instructor and airline transport pilot with over 15,000 flight hours across 22 aircraft types — is organized so that each chapter serves as a stand-alone reference for a particular phase of instruction. That structure lets it double as a genuine "how to teach" guide across topics including Fundamentals of Instruction (FOI), presolo instruction, first solo through the private certificate, advanced VFR instruction, introduction to aerobatic instruction, and instrument instruction.

Beyond the core instructional chapters, the book also features a comprehensive spin syllabus, material on multi-engine airplanes, guidance for instructing international students, teaching ground school, and setting up tests, along with teaching tips and common student errors for each phase of training. As Patty Wagstaff, 2004 inductee to the National Aviation Hall of Fame, put it: Kershner's manuals make "fun and interesting reading of sometimes-dry subjects" while staying "filled with all of the best information."
