Making Perfect Landings in Light Airplanes by Ron Fowler

This book aims to develop in pilots a keen sense of awareness in each of the three major areas of the landing procedure: recognition of the landing situation and understanding its true nature, knowledge of how to meet and weigh each task required against personal skill and limitation, and ability to evaluate the airplane's capacity to meet challenge. Each chapter presents and defines a specific landing situation so that pilots can quickly recognise it in the cockpit and institute corrective procedures.

Ron Fowler has approximately 30 years of experience as a Gold Seal-certified flying instructor, an aviation instructor at the university level, and a former wildlife survey pilot. He is also the author of several publications, including Flying the Commercial Flight Test, Producing Flawless Takeoffs in Small Airplanes, and Preflight Preparation, and a contributing editor for Plane & Pilot magazine. He resides in the town of Christmas, Florida.
