You have done, I'd say , a lot of us a service, in bringing light to bear on the work of this skilled and prolific writer and researcher. Another of his -

'Flight Discipline
' is the complete tool kit for any aviator, whether military, commercial, or recreational, to develop the discipline essential to becoming a safe and effective flyer. Major Tony Kern analyses the causes of poor flight discipline, gives chilling case studies of the consequences, and lays out a plan for individual improvement. Key words are italicized and review questions included for each chapter. An unequalled guide to this mainspring of good piloting.

First published in the USA in 1998, throughout its 400 pages the author ranges across every conceivable aspect of this subject.

And another from Tony Kern (1997) -

'Redefining Airmanship' offers the first concrete model of the abstract ideal of "airmanship," and gives the reader step-by-step guidance for self-appraisal and improvement in the areas of flight proficiency, teamwork, and good judgment in crisis situations. The author, Major Tony Kern, draws on his extensive flight and crew-training experience in the U.S. Air Force, but his model is invaluable for all pilots, whether military, recreational, or commercial.


"Kern's work is a breakthrough, and a benchmark."
--John J. Nance, author of 'Blind Trust'
