Date - 12-5-2008 Pilot Rating - Instrument OverallDurability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | I have about 10 hours in a Duchess and am pressing on to getting signed off for the check ride. The video parallels exactly what my instructor has been teaching. Great reinforcement. ConsNone General CommentsI wished that it were longer when I got to the end. Am now in my second viewing of the DVD. |
Date - 11-20-2008 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | This video is much more than just a primer, it is a great aid for multi training. Whether on a 141 or 61 program, it goes a bit beyond the maneuvers explaining general A/C operations. More importantly, it helps review, study and chair-fly all those ConsIt could use a chapter dedicated just to emergency procedures and some more detail and/or diagrams for the main systems like; Retractable Gear(with a manual extraction demo), Trims/Autopilot, Fuel/Boost Pumps. General CommentsHighly recomended for the transitioning pilot as well as for the add-on and or MEI. |
Date - 10-3-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | The program does give a good introduction to what flying a twin will be like. There are good examples and explanations given as to what is going on during your training and different situations. ConsNothing really General CommentsI thought the program would be like a training program but it's actually more of an introduction to twin flying. Nevertheless, it does provide helpful hints for your training and gives the viewer and excellent idea of what to expect. |

| informative and to the point. well made and well presented. Consnon really. General Commentsas it was my introduction to twins (something i know little about) do not feel qualified to comment about what it may be lacking. |
Date - 4-10-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | It's easier to sit and watch than to read. Consyou need to watch it several times for everything to stick. General CommentsIt is definitely worth the money. |

Date - 3-18-2008 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | It at least gave me an idea about the systems in the twins.

Date - 1-24-2008 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Probably saves an hour of dual getting your ME Rating. ConsA little long and kind of boring. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 12-6-2007 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Good overview of Multi-engine operations. ConsA little pricey! General CommentsI'm glad I bought the DVD. It was especially helpful as I got my rating in an Apache... which of course was very similar to the Aztec used in this DVD. This wouldn't be the case for the many who train in Seminoles. I think $49.95 would be closer to the mark. |
Date - 11-30-2007 Pilot Rating - ATP OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) ConsThere was a scene or two that talked about and showed an engine feathered and then went inside the airplane and the engine controls showed the other engine feathered. General CommentsThis DVD was purchased for my son who is working on his multi. I thought it was a great review of multi aerodynamics, in preparation for his oral. It was also a good review for me, since I earned my multi over 30 years ago. |
