Lots of pictures, graphs and sidebars to go back and review right before I take the FAA exam and the checkride. Will be a great resource in the future after I get my Pilot's License for periodic review. Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsSturdy Book. Should last for years. Some people have commented that as a con. I think it is a plus. |
