pilottraining.ca's Online Ground Schools?

Post by Panama Jack »

Anybody have experience with this product offering?

Is it any good, or is it death-by-powerpoint?

Powerpoints yes, plus videos of all classes. Videos of flight maneuvers, module test questiosn and practice exams. Pretty good, worth the cost, I used them and got 98% on my PPAER. Had to back up with personal reading, and some questions with my INS, and it did lack the human element, and socialising from a live groundschool. A bonus was being able to re-run a class several times to get the full impact.

I did it for my commercial, and I would do it again.

Ya I did my Private ground school found it very helpful. Plus if you are stuck on something there are forums on there so you can get in contact with one of the instructors easily.

Link? Cost?

I should probably do something like this, I can't read in real life anymore. Wanna be lab partners Jack?

You mean, me run in a mouse maze while you time my progress? :wink:

It all sounds rather interesting and with attractive pricing. On one of the videos, the female groundschool instructor at least seems less annoying than Martha King.

We can switch off in the maze. I vote beer and wings instead of just cheese at the end.
