I am very glad that Sporty's had this. This has been a great way to review and brush up for a return to flying. I hope they continue this program, it's definitely worth the money!

go for platinum
I went basic. Basic is okay. Platinum would definitely have been a better choice. So far I am okay with what I paid for. I have not received an e-mail or a phone number from a flight crew advisor. My only complaint is "Not having someone to explain what I was not quite understanding. It was the weekend though. Plus this is all new for me. First-generation of my family and first of my friends. Yeah, so I am going blind with a lot to take in. Any help would have been greatly appreciated. I want the best that sportys has to offer. But, I have to dip my toe in before I jump all the way in. Sportys pilot shop, I will always give an honest review and a fair rating. that's why 4 out of 5 stars. Thank you for reading my review. If it's helpful let me know. LETS DO SOMETHING AMAZING!!!

You'll get as much out of this tool as you put into it. Without doubt you have access to a vast library of courses that will make you a better pilot! Whether you're a CFI (as I am) or a private student, ALL these courses will teach you lots new.

I do not like the membership because:
1. The Garmin courses are not accessible
2. There is not a section specific to Commercial Oral training [like flashcards or a list of questions & responses with explanations]

Had it since it came out almost. Live nice and close so it's a nice value for me and used it when I got my instrument rating and now studying for commercial. Enjoy all the learning that's made possible with this. Need to make it down for the flight lesson. As a pilot and aircraft owner, I find the value of this very worth while as I order supplies and such.
