Air carrier operations - Holt, Mark J.; Poynor, Phillip J. (Newcasle Aviation Supplies and Academics, Inc, 2002)
"Whether a Part 121 airline or a Part 135 charter operator, a company lives or dies by its compliance with the applicable Federal Aviation Regulations or FARs (14 CFR). Air Carrier Operations introduces students of aviation to the significant Federal Aviation Regulations affecting airline operations. Students and professionals gain an appreciation of the variety of regulatory issues involved in air carrier operations and gather the background information they need to identify relevant regulations and apply them. The book examines the many regulations governing an air carrier and focuses primarily on 14 CFR Part 121 air carriers, though coverage includes Part 119 and relevant portions of Parts 117, 135, 91, and 61 of the FAR. The text emphasizes Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) flight operations, particularly useful to instrument-rated pilots and aircraft Dispatchers. The Second Edition is extensively revised, with many new regulations covered from the years since the 1st Edition, one example of which is the newer Rest Requirements regulations for airline crews and other air carrier employees. A college text, ideal for Air Carrier Flight Operations or Airline Operations courses, this book also provides excellent preparation for airline interviews and initial pilot and dispatcher training."
