    Pros

    While the Advanced section was dtaed (Rob looks to be 24 years old;-)! The info contained is still the same as far as the aerodymanic principals go. All in all it was well done andn has nice graphics.

    Cons

    The coss country was not what I expected. I have sever al Sportys videos on fixed wing training andn their XCountry was technically based. This video was more of a joy ride between east coast (NYC) Heliports and airport as well as a nice flying piece out west. Since this is a "Training" video I was looking more for the use of Helicopter specific charts and route planning for a XC at lease the differences between Helicopter and fixed wing considerations for planning.

    General Comments

    While I'm giving this a recommendation I strongly suggest if its available purchasing teh Advanced video sepetately. As stated above the XC has no training value.
