    Pros

    DVD does a good job for experienced pilots just wanting a brush up on airspace, etc.

    Cons

    Only cons I can think of is that the program does not cover some basic items on the charts. It seems aimed more for the experienced pilot. Overall good program for what it is.

    Pros

    Adequate airspace presentation. Nice in its information.

    Cons

    Poor "weather" information with only two subjects discussed. Airspace is nicely done but rushes through it without hightlighting and distinguishing some significant areas.

    General Comments

    I believe you can find better but "adequate" is the word.

    Pros

    An excellent review of the now current shape of the airspace regulations and the formats of the weather printout products. The presentation was organized and easy to follow. It kept my attention through this somewhat circuitous material.

    Great for biennial reviews.
