  Carrying out a successful instrument flight not only requires the technical and operational skills to maneuver an aircraft in conditions of reduced visibility or adverse weather, but also requires a set of theoretical knowledge and flight techniques that help minimize the margin of error and try to ensure the success of an instrumental flight. 
  In this new book of the most successful Aeronautical Library in America, we will try to cover all the theoretical and operational technical content to provide each reader with the necessary tools with which they can develop a safe and efficient instrumental flight. 
  Flight physiology, basic and operational theoretical concepts of instrumental flights, basic regulatory concepts and a whole series of recommended techniques to carry out this type of flight without losing sight of the main objective, to operate the aircraft safely. 
  Instrument flight theory is one of the main subjects of the commercial pilot career since it forms one of the most solid pillars that a pilot in training must have.

  A highly entertaining anecdotal collection of humorous life observations during a trip around the world. Travelling by bus to Kathmandu, the author experiences hair-raising misadventures: a chase through Jerusalem, a gun battle in Jordan, a pummelling by a gargantuan masseur in Istanbul, a python in India, and the terrifying James Bond encounter in Australia. His portrait of an Afghani shopkeeper has a bizarre twist. Time-travelling detours punctuate interesting stories about the Taj Mahal, Sydney Opera House, Tahiti, Easter Island statues and Christ in Rio. More than a travelogue, personal insights and character portrayals are underscored by whimsical humour.

  Sex Death and Fly-Fishing

  John Gierach

  From the irrepressible author of Trout Bum and The View from Rat Lake comes an engaging, humorous, often profound examination of life's greatest mysteries: sex, death, and fly-fishing. 
   
   
   
  John Gierach's quest takes us from his quiet home water (an ordinary, run-of-the-mill trout stream where fly-fishing can be a casual affair) to Utah's famous Green River, and to unknown creeks throughout the Western states and Canada. We're introduced to a lively group of fishing buddies, some local "experts," and even an ex-girlfriend, along the way. 
   
   
   
  Contemplative, evocative, and wry, he shares insights on mayflies and men, fishing and sport, life and love, and the meaning (or meaninglessness) of it all.

  Ever wondered when board games got so good? 
   
  The last forty years have seen nothing short of a revolution in the world of tabletop games. No longer synonymous with family arguments over a game of Monopoly or Trivial Pursuit, board games and the once niche hobby of tabletop gaming have moved into the mainstream over the last four decades, with modern  
  classics like CATAN, Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne becoming established household names. 
   
  In this informative and entertaining volume, this revolution in tabletop gaming is revealed and reviewed by one of the most knowledgeable commentators there is.  
   
  James Wallis explores the evolving world of board games through the lens of the Spiel des Jahres, Germany’s prestigious Game of the Year award, looking at a host of past winners catapulted to worldwide popularity, once lauded games now sadly forgotten, and a few popular hits that somehow missed out. Alongside this, Wallis  
  expertly chronicles the increasing sophistication in the design of modern board games and their ever growing variety.  
   
  Everybody Wins is a book for anyone who loves games, wonders what all the fuss is about or just wants to know what to play next—the essential, hugely readable study of the modern board game.

  Don't think that because it is such a small country with only about 17 million people, it should be neglected. The Netherlands has a long history, with a high influence on our cultures, trading routes, the stock market, business, and art. 
  The Dutch were all over the world. They "owned" and colonized a big portion of what was then the known world. They were among the first settlers, had the biggest haven and biggest fleet for some time. The Dutch East-Indian Trading Company, or VOC, is probably the biggest or at least one of the biggest companies that has ever existed, with its shareholders, its ships, its spices and trading routes, and so much more. Learn more about what happened in the same area that's currently the United States, South Africa, Indonesia, and so many areas across the world. 
  In this book, we will begin with the Dutch settlers on the east coast of the United States, their settlements in Indonesia and other Asian countries, and their vast group of colonists in South Africa.
