Instrument Procedures Handbook

by Federal Aviation Administration

An excellent resource for instrument-rated pilots who want to learn how to maximize their skills in an "Instrument Flight Rules" (IFR) environment, this handbook contains up-to-date information on operations regulated by the National Airspace System. In-depth sections cover all phases of flight from takeoff to landing, including detailed coverage of instrument charts; takeoff, en route, approach, and landing procedures; human factors; land and hold short operations; and runway incursions. Intended primarily as a technical reference for professional pilots, the added glossary, index, full-color photos, and illustrations make this a valuable training aid for flight instructors, instrument pilots, and students.

About as dry as trying to eat five saltines with nothing to drink but very practical and informative for those working on their instrument rating.

It’s the same thing with the IFH… please just combine the two. I felt like this one had barely enough info to stand alone but it somehow still did. Why?

With the Instrument Flying Handbook, everything you need to pass FAA's Instrument written test. Could be usefully supplemented with, say, Jeppesen's Instrument/Commercial book (which has great graphics), but still a great resource.

essential book for instrument rating pilots.
better to read this before JEPPESEN : GFD Instrument / Commercial Textbook
