Informative
- By Peter from Wisconsin USA on Friday, December 04, 2009
- Pros:
- Cons: Purchase the book too.
- Review: I've found the gleim CD's and books very helpful. Although I haven't taken my instrument knowledge test yet I scored a 98% using their private pilot courses. I'm sure I'll yield similar results with this audio course.

making great use of limited study time
- By James from Anthem AZ USA on Monday, December 28, 2009
- Pros: very concise and well structured, perfect accompaniment for the written test guide
- Cons: don't forget that you need study alot more than what is here to prep
- Review: This product is completely worth the purchase price. Between these CD's and the Gleim Instrument Pilot test guide (and a Sporty's DVD course) and the free FAA publications, I have all I need to get ready for the test. I commute to / from work almost every day, 30 - 40 mins each way and I can easily get one CD in during a daily commute. I have listened to each one about 3 times at least now. They help greatly with all the factual / memorization aspects of the preparation, and this greatly helps make the most pertinent material stand out when reading the morre in depth sources.

It helped me ace the test!
- By "Captain" Patsy from Piney Flats, TN on Saturday, January 03, 2009
- Pros: material very well organized and concisely presented
- Cons: too many advertisements interspersed - only one needed
- Review: It was a great way to turn drive time into study time. For weeks I listened every chance I had. When I saw I'd made 100 on the exam, I was thrilled I'd used your CD's. Thanks for a truly effective product!

Expensive for an audio book, but it was worth it.
- By Ryan from Okemos MI USA on Friday, January 09, 2015
- Pros: It's straight and to the point. Accurate.
- Cons: Kind of expensive for an audio book and it's length.
- Review:
It's pretty dry but it's hard to find an audio book that helps you prepare for a test that isn't. I actually appreciated that there wasn't a lot of fluff. They just go at it dumping information you'll need for the FAA knowledge exam.
I would listen to this on the way back and forth driving to the airport and will probably listen to it here or there to keep me sharp on some of that information over the years. - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 3 Other people found this review helpful.

- By Carson from Kearns UT USA on Monday, July 11, 2011
- Pros: Easy to make time to listen to them, and it's very helpful
- Cons: Can get boring
- Review: CD's helped out a lot and I would recommend to anyone who doesn't have a lot of time to get in studying. I drive truck for a living so I had plenty of time to listen to them. Worked good! I passed.

Very wise investment!!
- By John Pilatipus driver from Greeneville TN USA on Thursday, February 02, 2017
- Pros: Accurate easy to listen to, will not drone you to sleep
- Cons: Needs some editing but no biggie, just buy the Gliem instrument study book to accompany audio.
- Review:
A great accompaniment with the ASA Oral Study guide! The more senses you engage in your studies the more effective the impact and More Lasting!
I used all the material to make flash cards and review and listen.
Downside; some of the material on the audio was no longer used so I had to edit it out. That is based on the current Gliem study book.
Polite helpful people through the whole purchase and navigation of the materials use. - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 1 Other people found this review helpful.

Useful, if tedious
- By Tom from Portland, Oregon on Tuesday, May 08, 2007
- Review: All the information you need in a clear, concise unadorned format. It is all information, all the time. Not a lot of effort to explain, just to inform. Not enough life in the readers. If you master these cds, you'll pass the test, but you might not understand instrument flying.
