Regretfully, FlightLiteracy (formerly FlightLearnings) will be turning out the lights after fifteen years. Google, in its infinite wisdom, has chosen to remove FlightLiteracy from its search results (the claim is that the content on this site is spam). We appealed their decision to shut us down, to no avail.

Unfortunately, since Google has a monopoly over internet search, this means that traffic levels on the site will drop to a level that makes maintaining it uneconomic. As time progresses, we will no longer be able to maintain the server space and will remove the site from the internet. Thanks to all who have supported us over the years.

To fight back against the monopolistic practices of companies like Google, we recommend using a competing search engine such as Brave (you get the added benefit of not being spied on by Big Tech) and advocating for anti-trust legislation from your representatives.

Instrument Flight Rules

This section is designed for use by instrument flight rules instructors and pilots preparing for instrument rating tests. Instructors may find this section a valuable training aid as it includes basic reference material for knowledge testing and instrument flight training.

This section conforms to pilot training and certification concepts established by the FAA. There are different ways of teaching, as well as performing, flight procedures and maneuvers and many variations in the explanations of aerodynamic theories and principles. This section adopts selected methods and concepts for instrument flying. The discussion and explanations reflect the most commonly used practices and principles.

  1. The National Airspace System
  2. The Air Traffic Control System
  3. Human Factors
  4. Aerodynamic Factors
  5. Flight Instruments
  6. Attitude Instrument Flying – Analog Instrumentation
  7. Attitude Instrument Flying – Electronic Flight Display
  8. Basic Flight Maneuvers – Analog Instrumentation
  9. Basic Flight Maneuvers – Electronic Flight Display
  10. Helicopter Attitude Instrument Flying
  11. Navigation Systems
  12. IFR Flight
  13. Emergency Operations

The information found in this section is based upon the information found in the Instrument Flying Handbook published by the FAA.

Flight Literacy Recommends

Rod Machado's Instrument Pilot's Handbook -Flight Literacy recommends Rod Machado's products because he takes what is normally dry and tedious and transforms it with his characteristic humor, helping to keep you engaged and to retain the information longer. (see all of Rod Machado's Products).
