    Plays.

    I hoped for a better coverage of the material. There was one graphic of glide sloap that was pretty good. Beyond that topics were rushed over.

    Good-quality video presentation on the topic.

    Cons

    If you already have the complete DVD set that came with the Sporty's Private Pilot course, this DVD is redundant.

    Video length is good. Quality of video is right where it needs to be. Content is on target and current.

    Cons

    Could use more on approaching the pattern from different directions and what to do for entering the pattern based on different wind directions.

    General Comments

    This video is of the same great quality that I have come to expect from the crew at Sporty's. I have no doubt that you all set the bar on videos of this type and provide a great service to all different facets of aviation. I for one always look to see what comes out next to help fill in the blanks invariably left from training.

    Pros

    Has some good footage and demonstrations, but not nearly enough.

    Cons

    Not at all what I expected. I anticipated it would contain much more detail and information than it does. Most of the video is a rehash of what is covered in the Private Pilot course. It also does not contain nearly as much valuable information as other videos I have, but in some respects does have new and different information.
