Emergency Maneuver Training - A common sense treatment of many of the questions left unanswered during flight training. Learn emergency strategies that have been taught to military and civilian pilots around the world, from the instructor who developed the EMT program - the leading edge of emergency maneuvers training technology since 1987

Review the fundamentals of flight; basic aerodynamics, turn dynamics, roll dynamics, glide and performance, and off airport landing scenarios

Discover the intricate relationship between pitch and power, airspeed and altitude, which control surface turns an airplane, the significance of V-g diagrams, what really causes a spin, how wingtip vortices behave, how to handle a control failure, how stress affects pilot performance, the critical sequence of events needed to recover from unusual attitudes.

Learn how the airplane's attitude can negatively influence pilot perceptions, the difference between spirals, stalls, and spins, how to avoid wake turbulence, how to maximize the probability of surviving a forced landing, trademark procedures such as PARE, Power-Push-Roll, Speed-Spot-Set up, and many more.

Reviews:
"Rich Stowell has the unique ability to dissect complex topics in a way that all pilots can understand. His message is safety and his approach makes sense." --Rod Machado, aviation speaker, educator & author

"In recent years, the airlines have begun to realize the critical importance of preparing their pilots for the need to employ emergency maneuvering in the case of attitude upsets. Rich Stowell, who has been in the forefront of such training for years, has just written a book that provides similar advice for general aviation pilots. Emergency Maneuver Training is destined to contribute significantly to general aviation safety, and I recommend it to all who want to keep their airplanes out of the scrap yard." --Barry Schiff, author, video host, airline pilot.
