Review: A nice easy to read and follow instruction regime for VFR pilots finding themselves in IFR conditions. Enough IFR information without overload. I'm glad I purchased this book and plan to review it from time to time for that one instance I find myself in IFR conditions. Even if you are thorough in your weather and pre flight briefings, it adds a bit of confidence knowing you have the tools to get you clear. The author covers the phases of flight under emergency IFR conditions up to landing safely.
