FMS and EFIS user guide
 

Hello Chaps.
Anybody out there can recommend any books talking of FMC and EFIS,i'd like to lay my hands on any notes dealing with the matter as i'm very clueless about it.Something that explains from scratch to advanced similar to The Turbine Pilots Manual.Any help is appreciated

There is a good Australian book by Aviation Theory Centre (ATC) called "Avionics & Flight Management Systems for the Air Transport Pilot"

It includes INS / IRS, EFIS, FMS, Autopilot and Flight Director systems, Warning systems (GPWS and TCAS) and Recording systems (flight data and voice recorders)

Check out www.flyingbooks.com.au or www.aviationtheory.net.au or www.pilotshopwa.com.au

Let me know if you have a problem getting the book

Thanks Nirak i've started browsing through already

There's also the "Big Boeing FMC User's Guide" by Bill Buffer and Skeet Gifford which is quite useful and is stocked by Transair Pilot Supplies.

Check it out here:

Pilot supplies - pilot and aviation supplies from Transair Pilot Shop

Yeah i heard about that one too which is quite famous.I was discussing about FMS with a friend of mine who recommended me to practice rather than reading it,he strongly advised i used the PMDG on the Microsoft Flight simlator and practice FMS by doing so i'd be able to grasp it quicker.What do u guys think about it?

you could also go to the USA FAA website, they have an "Advanced Avionics Handbook" that you can download for free. It's been a while since I read it so not quite sure how much info on FMS's in there. But even so.... it's free!:ok:

Whilst MS FS has it's limitations - if you're anything like me, you'll learn quicker doing hands-on rather than falling asleep at night with the manual flopped on your chest! And the nice thing about any of those programs is that you can't break them! Just keep tinkering away, and learn new things as you go. Get stuck? Press pause, break out the manual, and proceed from there. Get as much "arm-chair" time as you can with any new system... it helped me bunches prior to actually meeting the beast in the air!
