Airplane Flying Handbook - FAA-H-8083-3
www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aircraft/airplane_handbook/
This handbook will reflect the effort to provide separate handbooks for different aircraft categories and classes by removing the chapters on seaplanes and skiplanes. Those aircraft classes will be covered in a separate handbook, which will be out later. The Airplane Flying Handbook will also contain other significant revisions. New chapters will include Performance Maneuvers, Transition to Complex Airplanes, Transition to Turbopropeller Powered Airplanes, and Transition to Jet Powered Airplanes.
