REVIEW: MULTIENGINE FLYING,  Paul A Craig  TAB/McGraw-Hill 1994

This new title, part of the TAB Practicl Flying series, is an excellent
supplement to ground school training required to obtain a multi-engine
rating, vital to all serious pilots.  However, the change from single to
multiengine flight presents new situations and elements of danger and it
is essential for anyone seeking to make the transition be aware of these.

Paul Craig, a CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) covers the essential
subjects: multiengine aerodynamics, takeoffs, landings, engine-out
procedures, propeller systems, fuel and electrical systems.  Also included
is a description of multiengine flight training detailing a syllabus of
seven lessons complete with objectives and completion standards.  Next,
author Craig tells us about the Multiengine rating practical test standards
and what to expect including sample oral questions you are likely to be asked 
during the examination.  Finally, there is a chapter on the multiengine 
flight instructor and what to do once you earn your multiengine rating.  

This book is obviously not for new pilots, but for those with many single
engine hours in their log books and considerable flight experience.  A
multiengine rating is mandatory for those seeking the Commercial Pilot's
license or those wishing to move up to larger, faster and more powerful
aircraft.  This book will help you understand what you're getting into
and help you through it should you decide to go after your multiengine
rating.
