Fatal Traps Reprint


Recommended Posts

Email received from Mr. Whyte.

 

Fatal Traps for Helicopter Pilots

 

Thank you for your email expressing interest in the second print-run of this title.

 

I can advise that the reprint is being done by McGraw-Hill Professional in New York. Official release date is 1st December 2006 however someone ordering directly from McGraw-Hill (http://books.mcgraw-hill.com/getbook.php?isbn=0071488308&template) received a notification of an October delivery date.

 

 

 

The title is appearing at Amazon sites in many countries, Transair Pilot Shops in the United Kingdom will be stocking the book. In New Zealand it will be distributed solely by Reed Publishing NZ Ltd.

 

McGraw-Hill is a well-known publisher worldwide with distributors in most countries. So, if you wish to order through your local bookshop, quote the title, the publisher and the ISBN which is: 0071488308 and they shouldn't have too much trouble acquiring a copy for you.

 

If you are a bookseller or Pilot Shop looking to retail the book, please contact your nearest McGraw-Hill distributor to negotiate your bulk discounted supply.

 

Finally, I can hold my hand on my heart and tell you that I have been totally overwhelmed with the feedback about this book. I dared not dream that there wouldn't be one criticism in the three years since it first appeared but that is the truth. Everything you've heard is true and the information in Fatal Traps is timeless; it will never expire. So don't hesitate to grab a copy and please feel free to email me your personal opinion.

 

Regards,

I read Fatal Traps at least three times cover to cover during my ab initio training. IMHO, this book should be required reading for all pilots, and especially for the newbies. It didn't make me want to quit flying, but it sure made things a lot clearer as far as the risks go... :mellow:

 

I couldn't agree more! I hope to start my training in 2 years and have read this book cover to cover. I learned a ton (most of the things were concepts or things that I wouldn't have thought of but make sense now that I now about them ;) ). This book should definitely be mandatory reading for all prospective/student pilots. This is an excellent book and well worth the price. :up: GET IT!!

 

I never heard of this book so I ordered it from amazon. Thanks for the heads up

 

I think thats where I got mine. Its worth checking out.
