Customer Reviews

As good as it gets

This magazine is as good or better than advertised. Shippping was immediate. I will be a return customer for this merchant.

Kershner is the standard for pilots

After 16 years I am back flying again, and this was my first choice to review instrument training. Kershner is highly recommended by all my pilot friends, instructors, and FBO owners--and with good reason. He is highly readable, humorous, and comprehensive in his approach.
