> 24 hourThis is a great book packed with tons of knowledge on an easy to understand format. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the price. I feel that they could find a way to get that down just a bit to help out the customer in an already expensive industry. Over all great book and would highly recommend it.

> 24 hourI love that Rod made this book so fun. I believe you must be of sharp wit to get his humor. But this book is a giant stand-up teaching you how to fly. But I only gave it 4 stars because the humor is a double edge sword. When Im not in the mood for shinnanigans, and just wanna get to brass tax, I still have to read this book rather than skipping to the meat and potatoes to be sure I keep the context of his lecture properly. So if you have the excitement of Ben Stein, do not buy this book.

> 24 hourThis is in my opinion the best textbook for private pilot. I just got a 93% on the PPL written. Rod goes into way more detail than say the Jeppesen books, which is great because even if you only retain some of it, you still have more than enough knowledge to be a safe pilot.

> 24 hourMy 16 year old son was taking an online flight academy and was getting no where fast. I purchased this book after reading the reviews, and he absolutely loves it. Yes, the humor is a bit much sometimes but it holds his attention and he is making substantial progress now. I HIGHLY recommend that you order the audio files to go along with the book. The audio/book combination is working wonders for my son, and his practice test scores are proof. Beyond that, he can explain back to me the concepts that he is learning.

> 24 hourThere is a lot of helpful instruction in this book. But Machados lame, tiresome, sophomoric humor is so annoying, so every-page persistent, as to make this book, despite its quality content, all but unreadable. If there ever was a writer who thinks hes funny and isnt, Machado is the one. Youre a captive audience for this failed class clown. He inflicts his stupid jokes on you constantly, and there is nothing you can do to escape them. You cant stop reading, and he cant stop making a fool of himself.
