Searched for a thread like this, but could not find it. Can anyone recomend any good books to help improve flying knowledge? Especially books that are for flight simulation. I read the book “Microsoft flight simulator x for pilots real world training.” It was a really cool book to read as someone new to flight simulation at the time, but what about other books?

Hi there, There is a book out there that is entitled Pilots Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge. I just ordered for it.
Anything and everything ever written by Maestro Rod Machado.
Rod Machado’s books seriously recommended.
For tue understanding how aircraft flies also: Stick and Rudder by Wolfgang Langewiesche.

try this - it was written for an earlier iteration of MS flight sim - but it still applies
MS FLIGHT SIMULATOR 2002 GROUND SCHOOL : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive
there are other available articles listed in the description of this video and mentioned within the video itself

I think that’s the one that is available free from the FAA
Aeronautical Information Manual
Instrument Procedures Handbook
Instrument Flying Handbook
All free through Handbooks & Manuals (faa.gov) Those should keep you busy for a year or so. Read up and we’ll see you back here next year.
