This publication is aimed at guiding a pilot through Irish Aviation Law. It is primarily aimed at the Irish student and private pilot but would be extremely useful to commercial pilots as a quick reference guide or to any pilot thinking of flying in Ireland. Written in an easy to digest format, it covers every aspect of Irish Aviation Law. B & W, 85 pages, paperback.

This publication covers the requirements for initial issue of a JAA Flight Crew Licence and also the requirements for holders of National Flight Crew Licences wishing to convert to a JAA Licence. For holders of professional flight crew licences additional knowledge of JAR-OPS 1 or 3, aeroplanes or helicopters respectively, is also required which is covered in our sister publication A Guide to JAR-OPS.

• Simple to understand being written in layman’s terms, keeping the jargon to a minimum.
• Covering the JAA private pilots syllabus on Human Performance and Limitations.
• Pertinent to the student through professional pilot.
Although primarily aimed at pilots, other aviation personnel will find this guide a useful introduction to this relatively new field of aviation.
