5.0 out of 5 stars Multi-Engine Flying, Mar 25 2005

By Keith Benner - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Multi-Engine Flying (Paperback)

This book is a regular $39.99 available here for a couple dollars. I would advise you all to take advantage of this steal...it really is a good and throrough book to help you earn a multi-engine rating. It starts with the basics and ends with how to take and pass the checkride and the oral. It even has a whole section of practice oral questions! For a couple of dollars what do you have to lose? If you want to fly twins...buy it.
