    This book contains information that King Schools did not cover in their course. I will be using it as a reference book going forward.

    Cons

    Each section has an Additional Questions section in the back of each chapter. It would be nice if the answers were available either in the very back of the book or online.

    Great tool to help you get ready for that nerve racking oral exam! They answers given to help you study are very in-depth yet are very understandable.

    Cons

    Could use a lot more questions about a lot more topics, but then, what book out there gives you everything you will ever need? This book goes great along with the knowledge of many flight instructors' experience.

    General Comments

    University of Illinois Institute of Aviation is the best flight school period!

    A fantastic booklet to review all topics covered on the Oral Exam. Topics covered in great detail.

    Paperback, so less durable than a hardcover book, but nicely sized to fit in most pilot bags.

    At times, I seemed to suffer from TMI (too much information) but I'm sure it will all be helpful when the actual oral test takes place.
