La monografía del Servicio de Publicaciones del Ministerio de Defensa rompe un poco con el formato clásico de libros apaisados que solemos encontrar para este tipo de publicaciones en las editoriales comerciales para decantarse por el tamaño A4 en el que encajan perfectamente las numerosísimas imágenes tanto históricas como más modernas, reproducciones de documentos, perfiles y tablas de datos que se alternan con un texto ameno y bien documentado con una tipografía de fácil lectura.
Comprehensive text for pilots adding the seaplane rating to their license and for seaplane pilots to learn more, using full-color photography and illustrations throughout.
Notes of a Seaplane Instructor is a distillation of all the tips, techniques and procedures of a veteran flyer and teacher, in an accessible and informative format. Author Burke Mees has an affinity for the "feel of the floats on the water" and how to communicate it in writing, as well as a sensible, professional approach which lends a truly "one-on-one" aspect to reading his book. All the seaplane maneuvers are covered, starting with preflight, proceeding through taxiing, takeoff, landing, and postflight procedures; also operating in various water conditions, stability of the aircraft on the water, step-taxi and -turn, and much more. Many illustrations, taken from and inspired by the author's own original flight instruction notebook sketches, help to further explain the concepts.
