Adventures in Flight

Book currently being written by Robert J. Miller, ATP, MCFI
Read about the harrowing adventures of a commercial pilot and flight instructor as he makes maximum use of his turbo-charged Cessna 210 in the pursuit of business throughout the national airspace system. Experience the challenges of high altitude instrument flight, icing, thunderstorms, and rush hour arrivals and departures from the nation's largest airports. Share the fears when things go wrong in the sky. See how sophisticated weather radar and stormscope technology can keep things smooth and dry. Learn about the unique demands of single pilot instrument flight. Witness the challenges of learning how to fly from the flight instructor's perspective. This is no watered down training manual. Instead, it is a frank discussion of real world, in the system, flying. It describes both the skills and screw-ups of a well-trained pilot who views his airplane as a valuable business tool.

Table of Contents	Reader Comments: Bob, I was surfing the net, and accidentally stumbled upon your website at about 6pm this evening. I decided to take a quick look at your completed chapters, and now I'm finding myself writing this comment 4 1/2 hours later. In short, these stories are simply amazing. Your love of general aviation is quite apparent, as is your zeal for teaching. I only hope that I can gain the same kind of real-world experiences, and pass them along to my students in the years to come. I can't wait to read the finished product! Jason Hepner, CFI Bob - loved your book. It portrays real world flying in ways your readers will understand. Bob Smith, CFII These are the best stories I've ever read. I've been sitting at my computer for four hours reading these. Absolutely the best!! Greg Barnhard, Flight Student
