Pros and cons of Pilot Handbook app for iPhone and iPad
Pilot Handbook app good for
Apart from the missing Retina Support the App is great for studying the basics.
German as a second language would be really good.
Best comprehensive Summary of all that pilots need, beginners and profs.
I like the calculators best. For me as non-native english Pilot its an excellent Reference for Passing the Tests. Well Worth the Money!!!!
Great
I bought this app for my iPhone and it came in really handy for quick reference; now I have it on my iPad and its really being put to a lot of good use! The layout is exceptional and the big screen format makes it an enjoyable read. Highly recommended :)
It gives almost all the basic information but still missing away few points.
Overall not bad for reviewing.
Not bad at all!!!
Amazing learning resource for a very cheap price :) I only widh there was a Canadian version
Some bad moments
this app is only for iphone ,in my ipad the text is too small and bad resolution
The previous version was PERFECT. Now... It is simply a waste of money and time. A complete DISASTER. Do not buy.
What they have done with these FAA books is truly a step backward. They no longer resemble the original FAA publication, and are more difficult to navigate and read. One of us who purchased the original version should receive a refund because this is not the same app.
