My CFII said this was a great review for the knowledge and check ride. This is a lifetime course so having this as a tool for review in the future makes this a better choice than a traditional ground school.

I really like it the learn to fly ground school from Sporty's. If I don't feel comfortable with a section I am able to go back and watch it again. The review scrambles the questions so they don't appear in the same order when taking it a second time. I wish in the other document recommendations area it would provided you the text from those areas suggested instead of me having to go to by books. I would be willing to pay more to have it all in one place.

The best IPC refresher I have worked through. The amount of material covered and resources within the course are top notch. With 51 years behind me as a pro pilot & CFII, ASEL & AMEL, I heartly recommend this course!

A very solid course. The G1000 was my first flying experience with a "glass cockpit" and I was concerned about the learning curve during the transition. I was also going through my IPC so it was double pressure. The course did a very good job of introducing me to the concepts of the G1000, what functionality it had and, most importantly, the best workflows for everyday functions and events. Highly recommended.

Very helpful. To be able to pause it for review and then listen to ATC dialogue on the internet as well as direct question to the folks at Sporty's Pilot Shop brought it full circle. Worth the investment!
