    Pros

    Good product and sound quality.

    Cons

    Basically, the content is just the FAA knowledge test questions put into a conversational format. It doesn't prepare somebody for what they can really expect to hear from the FAA Examiner.

    General Comments

    Based on discussions with several pilots, the FAA examination doesn't really look anything like to way it is characterized on the DVD.

    Excellent prep tool. After listening to the audio over and over in my car and on my Ipod, I feel much better prepared for the checkride. The CD has eight tracks, 12 to 35 minutes per track, each covering an individual topic. This makes it easy to focus on areas where one needs more review.

    Compared to the $ spent to reach this point in my training, this is money well spent!

    These CDs are very helpful. Just as advertised, it will enable you to study while driving down the road. With a busy schedule some days this is the only we get to study.

    Cons

    The quality was outstanding, but I would like to have heard less of a textbook or scripted response. It would be helpful to include a sampling of recordings from real world oral test and to hear how candidates think through or derive the correct answer.

    General Comments

    This is a great tool to keep the material fresh in your head as you approach your check ride date. My check ride is in 3 days and I'm feeling about as prepared as I can be.

    The Private Pilot Audio Checkride CD is extremely helpfull in preparing for the oral portion of the checkride. The CD's audio quality is excellant and the topics discussed were well thought out and broken down into easily memorized sections. I listen to it in my car on my way to and from work.

    Cons

    Can't think of any

    Excellent general review that includes a lot of information. It built my confidence by reminding me of the key words that an examiner would like to hear (e.g. aneroid wafer in describing how the altimeter works).

    Cons

    There seem to be some inaccuracies in the material. For instance, TAF is referred to as the Terminal "Area" Forecast. The person playing the examiner could have saved time with fewer comments such as, "As usual, Robin, your are exactly correct."

    General Comments

    Overall, this is a great resource and I highly recommend it for anyone who is preparing for the oral portion of the practical test.

    The speaker appears to know a lot about the "principles" of flying, but I'm not sure I'd get in a plane with her.
