Training for the seaplane
pilot rating and beyond!
Getting the seaplane
rating is just pure fun. It provides the challenge of learning a new
skill, freedom to land anywhere there is water, and access to remote
places. The seaplane pilot rating may be obtained as the first pilot
rating or, most commonly, as an add-on rating for those pilots who
already hold the Airplane, Single-Engine Land certificate.
Dale DeRemer’s
Seaplane Pilot guides pilots through this process with plenty of
tips, techniques and advice from a pro along the way. It is also
designed to function as an excellent tool for review, for those who
already have the rating. Dr. DeRemer, “the recognized dean of seaplane
pilots,” invites readers to join him on this learning adventure.
All the tasks the pilot
must demonstrate during the checkride are covered in detail: preflight
preparations, taxiing, sailing, seaplane base and airport operations,
takeoffs and landings, emergency operations, and more. Whether you want
to study intensely for the checkride to obtain a seaplane rating, or
just review your knowledge and skills from the comfort of an easy chair,
Seaplane Pilot will provide a welcome learning experience.
Dale DeRemer has also
been called the “father of the SEAWINGS national safety program for
seaplane pilots” by Water Flying Magazine. In the past 15 years,
he has conducted his well known wilderness courses training hundreds of
pilots, one-on-one, in the skills of wilderness seaplane operations from
the rainforests and high volcanic lakes of Central America, to beyond
the Arctic Circle. Seaplane Pilot draws from his extensive
experience in water flying, using full-color photography and
illustrations throughout. Also included are helpful sidebar notes that
reference the key parts of the FAA's Seaplane Practical Test Standards
(which is reprinted in the appendix), plus excerpts from pertinent FAA
advisory circulars, and a bibliography for further reference. 400 pages,
