Review (PDF) Practical Aviation & Aerospace Law
This is the hardcover edition of this title.Updated and expanded in its sixth edition, Practical Aviation & Aerospace Law (previously Practical Aviation Law) and its companion workbook function as a comprehensive instructive package for undergraduate and graduate aviation law courses. Whether used as a set or alone, this book is an invaluable reference guide for aviation and aerospace business managers, pilots, maintenance personnel, aircraft owners, air traffic controllers, air safety investigators, operators of unmanned aircraft, and others involved in aviation and aerospace as a profession or hobby.Practical Aviation & Aerospace Law provides readers with the basic legal knowledge and perspective to understand how the legal system works in the aviation and aerospace industry. The author helps readers recognize and avoid common legal pitfalls, and enables them to recognize when they need to call a lawyer. This sixth edition is updated and expanded to reflect recent judicial decisions and changes in statutory, regulatory, and international treaty law. It covers topics surrounding the burgeoning unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and commercial spaceflight segments as well, from an increasingly global viewpoint.In addition, Dr. Sarah Nilsson (ERAU) has contributed a new chapter discussing the historical development and current trends in spaceflight law, with an emphasis on how it affects commercial spaceflight operations.Written clearly and concisely, this book and the companion workbook provide a succinct foundation to a complex field of law. The conversational tone and frequent examples, many of them from the author’s experience in practice, make this an engaging and readable resource for schools and for the industry.

Purchased for class. I was very happy to see the price of this book, as I expected $120+ for ANY required textbook.After paying $120 for college math books that were shipped LOOSELEAF and required me to provide my own binder the great print and build quality of this book is MUCH appreciated. It's fantastic to get a BRAND NEW textbook that I actually get to keep at the end of the semester for a very reasonable price. The content seems up to date and I haven't noticed any grammer, spelling, print or other errors that other commercial educational publishers have been making in their books recently. After reading $120+ books from major publishers that CLEARLY had not been reviewed by an editor (or had ANY quality control whatsoever between revisions) this is a nice change.
The price and readability of this book was GREAT!!! The author is a seasoned attorney/pilot and wrote the book for real people, not lawyers and CEOs. It has been really easy to read and the best part about it is that he gives you REAL advice! He even includes checklists and flowcharts to help describe and guide you through the confusing legal world. It has tons of great information from buying aircraft/insurance, protecting yourself from the FAA, and running an FBO. I don't know how it compares to other legal resources out there, but its good enough for Embry-Riddle's courses.
Well written! Good introductory (but thorough) information about aviation law.
