ASA SEAPLANE, SKIPLANE, & FLOAT/SKI EQUIPPED HELICOPTER OPERATIONS

This operational handbook introduces the basic skills necessary for piloting seaplanes, skiplanes, and helicopters equipped with float or skis. It is primarily intended to assist pilots who already hold private or commercial certificates and who are learning to fly these aircraft types. Also beneficial to rated seaplane pilots who wish to improve their proficiency, pilots preparing for flights using ski-equipped aircraft, and flight instructors engaged in the instruction of both st dents and transitioning pilots. The book introduces the future seaplane or skiplane to the realm of water operations and cold weather operations, and provides information on the performance of procedures required for the addition of a sea class rating in airplanes.
