Date - 7-8-2010 Pilot Rating - Commercial Overall Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No |  THe DVD works as described. No problems viewing the material ConsThe product only allowes limited ability to actually walk through the steps necessary to execute a function. There is no ability to perform any operation except what was previously demonstrated and those were very limited. There is no "free play" to allow use of the product's various capabilities even for very basic functions. General CommentsIfound the product marginally useful. |
Date - 7-31-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Product teaches the basics. Simple to use. ConsWould like the ability to be able to simulate a flight. The Software is set up to 'EXPECT' a certain response when teaching different things. In other words...you can't just go poke around through all the screens. Seems like that would have been fairly simple to do. General CommentsOverall not bad. Could be better. For $60 I can buy an entire Microsoft Flight Simulator that is an approved FAA training tool. A little more time could have been put into this one. |
| Made understanding the Garmin easy--worth the cost. ConsNone General CommentsI recommend this with every Garmin purchased. |
Date - 11-22-2008 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Gave a good overview of the basic functions of the 496 GPS ConsOn-line catalog listed product as working with MacOS X which is not the case. Fortunately I run Fusion and a Windows XP guest, so I was still able to run the program. The program is very basic and on occasion, it appears to hang when an unexpected answer is given. It's hard to back up and try again. General CommentsWould have liked to see a "hint" if the wrong answer is entered. The program is very basic and not really much of a value for the money. I'd also have liked to see some "emergency" procedures embedded in the instruction material. |
Date - 8-27-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | A great product to learn and master the 496. ConsA bit too much talking on some points. General CommentsA must for your training. |
Date - 6-30-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) ConsVery cursory overview and learner must specifically use it by following their suggested step-by-step manner versus exploring areas of interest in more detail.
