The company’s primary goal soon became the training of post-war military pilots returning from active duty to work in the early civilian airlines. Plotters, regulations and training manuals were the first products. In 1960, the company broadened its production and development efforts with additional pilot supplies and books added to the ground school training line.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1969, the company became Northwest School of Aviation under a new owner, Roy Beech. The company’s goal was the franchise of the popular Merrell Ground School under the name “Aviation Seminars of America,” or ASA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn November, 1976, Joe Cucchiari purchased the company. “Aviation Supplies and Academics” replaced Aviation Seminars of America as the name to go with the ASA acronym, and the company again broadened its product line to add cassette courses and new books and training materials. The company was incorporated in 1977. In 1981, Joe Finelli joined the organization, bringing 20 years of experience in printing and publishing with him. Publishing and manufacturing has since become the principal company mission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"Embedded Video Player\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Emb_a2DvFtE\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2020-03-11T14:53:09-04:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"vendor","relation":"equals","condition":"Aviation Supplies \u0026 Academics Inc."},{"column":"vendor","relation":"equals","condition":"Aviation Supplies \u0026 Academics In"}],"published_scope":"web","image":{"created_at":"2020-07-20T11:57:22-04:00","alt":"Shop for Aviation Supplies \u0026 Academics Inc. products.","width":500,"height":500,"src":"\/\/www.pilotshqshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/ASA_Logo.jpg?v=1672277315"}},{"id":189145677960,"handle":"coupon-eligible","title":"Coupon Eligible","updated_at":"2025-01-23T02:36:17-05:00","body_html":"","published_at":"2020-12-14T21:11:58-05:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"vendor","relation":"not_equals","condition":"Lightspeed Aviation"}],"published_scope":"global"},{"id":285856989320,"handle":"new-additions","title":"New Additions","updated_at":"2025-01-23T02:36:17-05:00","body_html":"","published_at":"2024-05-13T22:18:55-04:00","sort_order":"created-desc","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"variant_price","relation":"greater_than","condition":"1"},{"column":"type","relation":"not_equals","condition":"Surplus Manuals"},{"column":"variant_inventory","relation":"greater_than","condition":"0"}],"published_scope":"global"}]
“If the Airline Transport Pilot certificate is the Ph.D. of aviation, the Commercial and Instrument tickets represent the bachelor’s and master’s degrees.” Author Bob Gardner defines the advanced pilot; The Complete Advanced Pilot is written for the many pilots who streamline their efforts by simultaneously preparing for the instrument rating and the commercial certificate.
An FAA Knowledge Exam is required for the instrument rating and the commercial certificate. In using the FAA tests as the premise for learning, Bob Gardner applies practical information here so readers are prepared for the exams and the cockpit. The required aeronautical knowledge is augmented by his specific tips and techniques, checklists and mnemonic devices, and sound advice from personal experience. Each chapter concludes with sample FAA test questions, and a comprehensive glossary and index are included as well as an approach chart legend appendix. This practical application of the FAA Knowledge Exam is not available in any other text!
With the author’s conversational yet concise explanations, readers will quickly grasp the subjects, pass the required tests and check-rides, and have an operational understanding of the flight they can take to the cockpit as newly-minted commercial pilots operating under instrument flight rules (IFR). Includes helpful internet resources for weather charts, complete color examples of those weather charts, updated review questions, and resource website links.
