520    After passing the FAA's Fundamentals of Instructing (FOI) 
       knowledge test required of all instructors, the true 
       challenge begins -- applying that knowledge in the real 
       world of teaching flight. Follow along as Arlynn McMahon 
       lifts the FOI principles from the classroom and brings 
       them into the cockpit. Her forty-four stories demonstrate 
       the FOI principles in flight and offer practical 
       strategies for dealing with both common and unexpected 
       situations -- all with wisdom, grace, and humor. McMahon's
       companion to the Aviation Instructor's Handbook (FAA-H-
       8083-9) uses memorable parables and provides sage advice 
       to illustrate FOI principles at work with real clients in 
       real-life situations. Psychology, human factors, 
       professionalism, effective communication, customer service,
       and ethics are evident in her teaching style with the 
       people she's interacted with over decades in the business 
       of flight training. McMahon's experiences illustrate what 
       works -- and why -- for instructors and their students. 
       Through artful storytelling, McMahon shows how a 
       successful instructor is sometimes a psychologist, other 
       times a detective, and always a gatekeeper enforcing rules
       and cultivating the behaviors required to be a responsible
       aviation citizen. Delightful, full of wisdom -- and 
       written with humor, kindness, and dignity for her students
       -- this is an invaluable guide for all flight and ground 
       instructors who will benefit from using McMahon's insights
       with their own clients.
