Congested Airspace: A Pilot's Guide
Garrison, Kevin: CONGESTED AIRSPACE: A PILOT'S GUIDE (THE COMMAND DECISIONS SERIES) Greenwich, CT: Belvoir, 1993. First edition. Fine with near fine jacket. 1/2" closed tear on rear panel of dj. ISBN: 1879620138. Author Kevin Garrison imparts sound advice and specific guidelines on to handle a flight into the busiest airspace in the country. The book begins with a look at the air traffic control system from its beginnings up to the present day. It lends insight into how ATC works and how pilots interact with it. The next section is a detailed description of airspace, complete with discussions of the new ICAO designation scheme and how it differs from today's system. Later on, there are detailed descriptions of every major airport in the United States, with tips on how to operate at them. There are also specific guidelines on how to conduct a flight into a busy terminal, from the preplanning stage right through to the arrival. Finally, there's a wealth of information on how to communicate effectively with air traffic control in high density areas, how to keep yourself organized, and an extensive discussion of safety techniques oriented towards collision avoidance.
