Very informative. Good, solid instruction. I learned a lot! ConsI know this may come across trite and shallow, but the student pilot is an attractive woman. Someone should have consulted with her about her attire. There's just some distracting issues concerning clothing with both the pilot and the instructor that sometimes distract me from the actual instruction. Then again, I'm a professional photographer and I pick up on things like that. General CommentsWell worth the investment. Makes me want to go get my tail wheel rating right now! |
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Worth it! The book is well written and delivered what is very technical information in a simple method that kept me reading. The DVD is well put together and presented nicely. Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsI feel much better prepared for earning my conventional endorsement having reviewed this kit throughly. I truly believe it will save time and money as advertised! |

Long enough to get the concepts across and short enough not to lose the viewer. ConsI ordered the book to go along with the video... this will take a bit more time to read through then I first thought. General CommentsI'm a CFI with a tailwheel endorsment. The information provided in the video and book, have already givin me ideas on how to present the concepts to the student. Great job overall. |

I am finding this vital and very informative as I begin my tailwheel training. Thank you! Cons The only complaint I have (expectation not met) was DVD's picture quality. The teaching and content is great, however the camera is not always in focus for the primary subject. I probably would still purchase this package product knowing what I know now, however, I think the video production ought to have been of a higher quality given the cost of the DVD. |

It helps to see the video and watch the airplane react to what you know the pilot is doing. ConsThe video could spend more time on the vaious cross wind techniques and when one technique is better in some situations and not in others. Cross wind is the toughest problem to overcome and I don't think the video did it justice. General CommentsI have my recent tail wheel endorsement but still found it helpful and would recommend this video. |
