Freshman in the united states.
 
Hello everyone.

I'm PPL pilot in Europe and I would like to do time building in US. I worry about one thing, because flying in Europe is a bit different than US so..Could you dish up me some materials about Air Law and other which describe flying in US.
You know I would to prepare before flying in US.

Thank you so much, cheers.

General Aviation Flying in the U.S is much more hassle free, and easier then in most if not all European countries, szczególnie Polska, assuming you're not flying out of the center of NYC.

When you go check the airplane out, you can hang out at the flight school and I'm sure people will be willing to help and answer any questions you might have. Either way, don't stress it, and don't go memorizing the every FAR out there.

Main things concerning you to look into will be dimensions, and types of airspace, as well as airspace entry requirements.. ATC stuff, such as possibly creating a flight plan, if you wish to have one... otherwise you can probably just get flight following if you want it, and how to obtain it.. practicing English ATC comms if you're not used to them. Becoming familiar with the FAA VFR sectional chart printed by Jeppesen and symbols on it.. if you're not already. Legal docs required to be on you to operate the a/c (license, medical, photo id, etc), as well as legal docs required to be on the a/c (airworthiness, poh, etc.)

Powodzenia.

Errrr, good post, but Jeppesen doesn't print the sectionals. You can find information on them anywhere, though ...

For some reason I thought it was them, but I guess not, been over 6 years since the last time I looked at one, so go figure.:}
