ConsNONE General CommentsI will be starting flying lessons soon and this showed things that as presently a non pilot found very useful/ |
| Great photography Short running time This DVD is okay, Kind of short on running time and high on price but not real bad. Fun to watch. I don't fly and am just interested in aviation. In all it does the job. |

Date - 1-8-2010 Pilot Rating - Private Overall Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No |  availabillity ConsWay too much for shipping. Almost a third of the cost of the DVD. It probably cost $1.00 to mail.... way to expensive. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 8-5-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | I was looking for information on sport pilot, vs experimental, vs regular pilot license. This program did not cover any of that. It was well done and informative...but not what I was looking for.

Date - 6-24-2009 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Puts most aspects of flying into simple terms for non-pilots. ConsWhile it is all simple, there is SO much information covered that it gets boring pretty quickly. General CommentsGood video, it serves its purpose, but don't show it to someone late at night...they WILL fall asleep. |
Date - 6-7-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Great DVD, it was exactly what it said, and Intro to flying for non-pilots and it got me even more interested in taking flying lessons. I appreciated how easy it was to follow and how the explanations were slow and detailed. I am definitley going to keep this in my library and for sure watch it again, I think I will learn more the second time. Consnone that I can think of. General Commentsexcellent, Sportys did a nice job. |

Date - 1-2-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | I am a first time flyer checking into the possibility of taking it up a notch, so to speak. I found some useful information in this video but a lot of it I learned already making my first flight as the pilot was a very good teacher. ConsAs most people always say, I just wish there would have been more information and a little more detail for the money. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 8-27-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Material is well presented with mix of video and graphics. Interesting topic that keeps viewers attention. ConsCould be reduced to less technical explanations for better understanding by non-pilots. General CommentsOverall great video that will be watched many times with the family. I did have to further explain some technical items to other viewers |
Date - 8-14-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | My friend Rich has never been in a light plane before. I thought this video would be a good way to put to rest any misgivings he might have about flying. He enjoyed the video and we made plans to do some sightseeing in the Cherokee in the near future. The video did a good job explaining just what happens while flying a small plane. ConsCouldn't find any. General CommentsGreat way to allay a non-pilot's fears. |

Date - 7-9-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | The begining of the tape has some great pointers on getting the passanger involved in the process of preparing the plane for flight and help in route. I think this helped my wife. ConsI'm going to hold off the IFR portion right now until she's more comfortable. I'm afraid it may be TMI (to much information) General CommentsI wish they'd stuck Collins in this video (Gee Shucks little lady a few bumps won't hurt this big ol plane). |
Date - 6-18-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Good video as far as it is laid out well. Flows nicely and has good flowing graphics ConsThis video is over the heads of most non fliers. A bit too technical. Needs to cater more to the true non flier and even more to someone who has never flown before. Not what was expected. A bit pricey for what you get.

Date - 4-4-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | A good idea. Cons Much too in depth and fast paced for someone unfamiliar with flying. The discussion of IFR was unnecessary. I thought that this would make a good introduction of the sport to pass around to friends/family, but it really doesn't fit that bill, unless you pause it often and fill in the gaps.

Date - 3-6-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Good introduction and review for me as took AP courses in high school and had 8.5 hrs of flying. Been 40 years since then and need a review. ConsPricey General CommentsCould lower the cost for program downloads to inspire larger audiance. |
