The kids love it! I love it! It is probably the only textbook they have really enjoyed and read. Test scores increased dramatically when we changed to this text. Yearly, 100 of our HS students use Rod's book—the critical backbone of their aviation careers.
Stacie Benson Linn,
CFI and Teacher, Shawnee High School, Louisville, KY
I thoroughly enjoy Rod’s informative illustrations and humorous sidebars. But, the real treasure is the text. Pay attention FAA, this is the way to write a teaching manual. I extol the virtues of this book to all CFIs and students.
Henry G. Smith,
FAA Designated Examiner,
33 Year Gold Seal Flight Instructor
I know you hear it all the time, but it is the best book ever for pilots and pilots to be.
Paul Lamb,
CFII, Smyrna, TN
Fabulous! absolutely an educational masterpiece. It follows the natural training order that an experienced instructor would use and ensures the student a complete course of training. There is nothing like it anywhere in the United States. No one has ever done anything like this before.
E. Allan Englehardt,
United Airline Captain, National Flight Instructor of the Year, Designated Examiner
