For far too long, instructors in Canadian aviation programs have used American-based textbooks and adapted the content for their students.
Canadian Aviation is meant to fill that gap, exploring several aspects of the aviation industry in Canada and providing a broad introduction for college and university students in aviation management or pilot programs.
Canadian Aviation was written through consultation with a wide range of industry professionals who contributed their time and expertise to the book.
This book is also useful for commercial pilots who are seeking a deeper understanding of the aviation industry
Each chapter includes:
- Case studies that describe an example of a true aviation accident or incident and how it is related to the chapter material.
- Professional profiles to highlight key careers in different aspects of the industry.
- A practice activity at the end of each chapter that allows for practice of the concepts discussed.
- A clear list of objectives at the beginning of each chapter to help students understand the key points.
- Integration of Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) so students can practice reading and applying regulations.
