Aviation Maintenance Technician: Powerplant, Jan 25 2009
By C. Betka "TB" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Powerplant (Paperback)
This is a great series for a set of reference manuals, and the price is great as well. I have all the books and they are very handy for reading a bit to find some quick information that you may have forgotten; or even learning a little something that you never knew. They seem to be well-written and concise. For the money, the books in this AMT series are very hard to beat.

The best price I could find., Mar 13 2010
By James Ammons - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Aviation Maintenance Technician: Powerplant (Hardcover)
The price was the best around, I didn't need the book right away so I had plenty of time to shop around and this was the best price around for a new book, $37.77 plus shipping. I have Jeppessen AMT books and this ASA book and the ASA has far more and better illustrations, better explanations, not just whats in the AC 65-12A. At my school we can use either book and the ASA is the book of choice and is recommended by the instructor. The Jeppessen powerplant is basically a copy of the AC 65-12A, The ASA is more like a conventional text book.

Get the Avotek ones!!, Feb 28 2012
By P. Grillo - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Aviation Maintenance Technician: Powerplant (Hardcover)
I got three books from this ASA series and I couldn't be more dissapointed: compared to the Avotek core books these are kids books. Way less information, barely no photos, poorer drawings and diagrams... They are useless for me, an airplane maintenance student. I feel I have wasted my money and wished I had gotten the good'ol Avotek ones, which I already knew :(I would only recommend these as a light reading / introduction to what Part 147 really is about. Seriously, if you are into this business, Avotek is the real thing!
