Useful tool! by Pam from SantaCruzCAUSA
Pros: Good learning tool and great way to get to know the terminology. Cons: Can't seem to record my voice. Review: I like this product overall. I am not sure whether I have loaded it properly, but seem to have to put the disc in every time to use it, which I would prefer not doing.

Extremely useful tool for the student pilot by A Customer from Buffalo NY USA
Pros: Simple, well organized, concise. Cons: Tuning the radio is a nuisance. Review: For a student pilot, the product exceeded expectations. The program is simple to follow and presents the material in a standardized rationale format. It is an introductory product that will get the student pilot off and running. More experienced pilots can also use this product to bolster their radio knowledge. Having the opportunity to practice the calls live is essential in building confidence. Adding some interactive practice flights to towered and non-towered airports would increase the value of this product.

Misleading Product Name by Richard from Los Angeles, CA
Pros: Good contents Cons: Not really a simulator. Requires CD in drive all the time. Review: This software is by no means a radio simulator. It is not much more than a recording of the the radio communications training. It does have a good coverage of all aspects of the airplane communications though. The software is kind of primitive. It requires the CD to be in the CD-ROM drive when running, so it's noisy and slow plus incovenient. It blocks the screen when running. The window can not be minimized. So it's hard to access other programs.

Good Product, Could Use some some improvement by Stephen from Cullowhee NC USA
Pros: Good Information, Good teaching tool, An example of almost every possible scenario Cons: Could use multiple examples for more complicated topics (clearance delivery, class B airspce), no good self-review method Review: This product does what it advertises, and has helped me with my towered communications. As a new pilot that spends most of my time flying in uncontrolled airspace, venturing into Class B and C airspace was intimidating. Using the practice found in this product, I feel much more comfortable than I would have without it. My one complaint is their presentation method works very well for teaching, not for reviewing or making sure the student has really grasped the information. Each communication has a "scripted" response that must be selected and read back verbatim. While this method is excellent during the learning phase, it does little to insure complete comprehension during review or extra practice.

I would recomend Comm1 to any student pilot, even if they had a great CFI by Frank W. Dicorte from China Spring, TX
Pros: covers every aspect of radio conversation in all airspace. Cons: I am sure there are a few but not to my knowledge Review: The Comm1 Radio simulator surpassed all of my expectations. I highly recommend you purchase the Flight Simulator headphone adapter also, it makes the simulator much more enjoyable.
I have had my Private pilot Certificate for many years, and never have had the confidence to make me feel at ease talking on the Radio. Comm1 has given me the confidence to fly into a controlled towered airport.

Comm1 VFR Simulator is Colorful by Dan Patterson from Mansfield, TX
Pros: Builds Confidence, Great Training Aid, Colorful Cons: Priced too high for what you get Review: Comm1 seemed to help a bit with my radio skills, by reducing the fear I have talking to the control tower, and making me feel more confident in my transmissions.
I think the price for what you get is probably not very good, but it is a great training aid.

by R22 Student Pilot from Brooklyn, NY
Review: I am currently training for my VFR Helicopter rating and Comm1 VFR training program has been a great help. I use the program before every flight lesson and I found out that it has help me focus more on my flying instead of my radio communications. One thing that I wish that they would improve on Comm1 is to allow me to pick an airport so that all example and training scenarios are of my home airport and region. Besides that, it is a great program that gets me into flying mode when I am getting ready to train on the weekends.

by Rather B. Flyin from Baltimore, Maryland
Review: This software helped me out tremendously with my radio calls when I first started flying, especially since I fly from an non-towered FBO located right in between B.W.I and Washington-Regan airport which are both class B's. I can't stress enough to student and private pilots how great of an investment this software is!
