|  Book recommendation for turbine ops? Hey all, I'll be flying some of my first turbine aircraft this summer and was looking for some good reading material to supplement the experience. I tried a search on this forum but did not come up with much. Anyone have any suggestions on a decent book that covers turbine systems, high alt. areodynamics, operating procedures, etc etc? BTW: I have been through AC 61-107A - just looking for an expansion on that material. Thanks!

  | Re: Book recommendation for turbine ops? The Turbine Pilot's Flight Manual (this is the hard cover edition, I'm sure you can find the soft cover if you search for more than 5 seconds like I did) http://www.amazon.com/Turbine-Pilots.../dp/0813800234

| Re: Book recommendation for turbine ops? Is "internship" a euphemism for "flying for no pay"?

Haha...I was waiting for that comment.  Nope, actually I'm getting paid more than most will make their 1st year at a regional.
