Reviewer - william carpenter Location - Medford, OR Date - 9-26-2011 Pilot Rating - Instrument Overall![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Usability ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Recommended Yes | ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Garmin G1000 Checkout Course Sporty's G1000 checkout is very well done; it is logically presented with the right format to progress from basics to an instrument flight. The pacing is excellent and presentation professional. I hate Sporty's method of shipping. What could be a $2 postal fee for this size package becomes a $13 dollar shipment fee.

So it's like graduation to the G1000, even though, I'm so glad I got the DVD, because there's so much more and fun stuff that I would have never known about, so Thanks for such a wonderful DVD. It going to help me before I take class room and simulater at Flight Safety in Witicha. Consnone General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
