    Pros

    The IFR DVD uses real world communications which is fantastic.

    Cons

    The VFR DVD does not use real world comm's. The communication is only scripted interactions with the same two voice 'actors' using the same, monotone, slow cadence, speach. The annunciation is good but not at all real world.

    General Comments

    I thought the IFR DV was done very well and really gets a 4 1/2 star rating from me (it loses a half star for not coming with a label on the DVD). The VFR DVD is ok, but just ok. If you prefer real world examples, then you should find another DVD. The VFR DVD value would increase greatly if it were reproduced with the same real world, scenario based examples that the IFR DVD provides.
