Aircraft Weight and Balance Handbook (FAA-H-8083-1A).pdf
Weight and balance, two of the most important factors affecting flight safety, are thoroughly discussed in this official FAA handbook. Indispensable for those responsible for aircraft weight distribution—the engineers, designers, pilots, and aviation maintenance technicians—this guide clearly explains how to correctly determine the weight and center of gravity for any type of aircraft, including the new light-sport aircraft (LSA) and very light jet (VLJ) categories. Many test questions for the FAA Knowledge Exams for pilots come directly from this colorful, fully indexed guide.
Technically Advanced Aircraft Plans of Action for Pilot Examiners.pdf
Flight testing should be reasonable and quite similar among DPEs, and as close to realistic as possible so that the training will focus on useful and necessary skills. Examiners should be sensitive to the complexity of the equipment and provide an environment that will allow enough time between tasks to achieve a fair evaluation. The FAA will provide guidance on the correct procedures for simulating the failure of equipment. More use of the autopilot would be normal with this equipment in real life, so we should allow more use of it on a flight test.

Airplane Flying Handbook 2004.pdf
This handbook 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 handbook adopts a selective method and concept of flying airplanes. The discussion and explanations reflect the most commonly used practices and principles. Occasionally the word “must” or similar language is used where the desired action is deemed critical. The use of such language is not intended to add to, interpret, or relieve a duty imposed by Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR).
