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
