Pros
Lots of information, great for someone who has been away from flying and needs to brush up
Cons
FAR/AIM is for 2011 yet the sporty's site states the 2012 FAR/AIM is in stock. I guess I was expecting the most current as it is splashed all over thier home page.

Excellent value for the price. DVDs professionally mastered with current and relevant information. Enough material to keep this old pilot reading for a while.
Cons
None.
General Comments
Take your time and read and view all of the material. Your safety and that of the rest of us up here are counting on it. Don't presume that just because there's a certificate in your pocket that a "quick refresher" is all you need. I'm reading each book, cover-to-cover, and watching each DVD as though I've never seen this stuff before. Fly Safe.

With the refresher course and a flightsimX program I'm good to get back in a plane, except for winning the lottery.

Not having flown for about 20 years and taking it up again this year I wanted something to catch me up on whatever I might have forgotten and what has changed in flying. I have not been through the whole course yet because of time constraints, what I have used so far is very useful. Glad I got it.
