Next semester I'm taking Instrument Flight Lectures, and they require four texts.
Jepp Instr./Commercial, FAR/AIM,some advisory circular on weather services (can't remember which one), one other text I can't remember, and then local approach plates. I don't know fully the details yet.
But I talked to the instructor, and she said that a good way to prepare for the intensive material, is to get a head start by reading over the FAR/AIM and a DVD or CD or Tape with IFR material.
So i'm wondering what material you guys would advise. I have the first of seven volumes of Sporty's DVD course, and it says on there it got an award from Flying Magazine 2001.
I liked the DVD format, as I'm using the Cessna Kit right now, and I frankly don't like re-installing the first 6 Cds to look over earlier material, changing the CDs every two seconds etc...
My FBO makes IR students buy the Cessna IFR kit, but I'm not going to start IR flight until late spring, or maybe even next Fall.
I'm just doing IR theory and building up VFR x/c time in the spring.
Thanx
Archer
