As we watch this video it is easy to be like most of the people who have left comments and judge this pilot. But who of us have not made some mistake in the cockpit? Hopefully none of us will make this one but we have all made smaller ones. One of the easiest ways to insure that this does not happen to you is to simply use a checklist. We can get rushed, complacent, just plain lazy and skip items or not use the checklist at all.

Pilotstore.com offers several FAA Handbook combos to help save you money on these important study materials.
Every pilot regardless of experience level needs to stay on top of weather and weather reporting. The FAA Weather Combo includes the Aviation Weather book that is the standard for learning weather theory and the FAA Weather Services book which will help take the mystery out of decoding weather reports.
If you are a student pilot, a flight instructor or someone looking to keep your knowledge up to date then the Private Pilot Combo is for you. It includes the most current editions of the Airplane Flying Handbook and The Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge. The FAA had done a great job of making these handbooks easier to read and have added information on GPS and Technically Advanced Aircraft.
If you are looking to add an Instrument Rating in the near future the Instrument Pilot Combo is a must for you. It features the Instrument Flying Handbook which has all of the basic knowledge every instrument pilot needs and the Instrument Procedures Handbook that has information on advanced procedure and operations.
Each combo also includes a bonus of laminated quick reference cards.
