Air Law: A comprehensive sourcebook for Southern African pilots is the first

book on air law published by a leading academic, and is intended to serve

the Southern African pilots’ community. Written in a straight-forward style, Air

Law is fully referenced and clearly presented. The book provides student pilots

and their instructors with the in-depth knowledge that pilots need to pass their

examinations and obtain their licences. Air Law offers private pilots a source

of legal reference that will enable them to remain competent and compliant

aviators, and guides them through complex regulations. Air Law will also help

commercial pilots to secure the core knowledge of air law that they need to

progress to advanced procedures. The book contains a section intended for

drone pilots.
Air Law tells a story: that of flying safely. The book offers readers who are

passionate about aviation a deep insight into the art of safe flying. You will

follow a VFR pilot on a cross-country flight, and see how the rules, regulations,

and demands of air law are there to produce better pilots, and to make flying a

unique and long-lasting human experience.
