||| |—|—| | | | In my pursuit of various ratings and certificates over the past decade, I’ve watched countless pilot training video- tapes and I’ve used a number of computer-aided instructional programs. Such materials, while a far cry better than the hit-or-miss do-it-yourself approach of years past, had obvious shortcomings. Tapes are great, but if you discover that you need to review a concept or two, just try to find the subject in the miles of tape that lie in your wake. And while computer programs are great for getting a handle on the FAA’s notoriously ill-written and ill-conceived knowledge exam questions, they lacked a link to the material that the questions reputedly cover.
With a new product line from King Schools, however, all of those problems are in the past. In short, the company’s integrated computer-based DVD instructional package puts all the information you want right at your fingertips. Courses are now available for the instrument and private pilot ratings courses.
