Product Description
Required reading for pilots for more than 25 years, this handbook is used extensively as a reference source for the FAA Knowledge Exams and provides information for training and guiding student pilots. Including basic knowledge that is essential for all pilots, from beginning students to those pursuing more advanced pilot certificates, it introduces pilots to the broad spectrum of knowledge that will be needed as they progress through their pilot training. Principles of flight, aircraft and engine structures and systems, weight/balance and performance calculations, charts and navigation, weather theory, reports, forecasts, and flight manuals are among the subjects covered. Formerly published as an Advisory Circular (AC 61-23C), this new edition is now listed as an official FAA Handbook (#FAA-H-8083-25).

 Standard Reference by the FAA- Excellent for New Pilot Study July 25, 2008
There are many reference books for Pilots. This is carefully designed by the Federal Aviation Agency as a test preparation reference. It is good, authoritative and has been upgraded relatively recently.
Good book but there is better November 12, 2007

This is the "official" FAA text on the subject.
However, it took some determination to get all the way through.
I much preferred Rod Machado's book. His humor can be a bit corny but you'll get through the book and understand the material much better.

I needed the PHAK for my aviation class @ SIU and the bookstores here were out. How they were out of PHAKS when there's only 70 students I don't know. I ordered it off of amazon and it was exactly what I was looking for.
A great digest of aviation basics August 23, 2007

This book is definitely the best introductory book to the main aviation concepts I ever read.
Each issue - from flight static and dynamics to FCS, propulsion, avionics and navigation, weather theory and influence, flight and ground operations - is considered in this book with a technical, but easily understandable, approach. The book is, as a matter of fact, an introduction and, therefore, is not suggested to experienced readers. It's, in any case, a five-star introduction.

FAA issued book. I used this book to prepare for the Private Pilot's License Written Test (ie. Ground School test). I haven't taken the test yet, but so far so good. This book was required by the ground school.
