Product reviews for Flight Instructor (CFI & FOI) Get it All Kit

Easy to follow

The video was produced in 1994 and it's now 2020 as I write this. The checkride oral exam seemed light on the fundamentals of instruction.  There were times when the scene would cut away to a "later-version" of John (several years later, but in the same shirt in front of a blue screen depicting the hangar space used for the oral exam) expounding upon an answer given to the DPE.  John seemed to revert into teaching mode instead of CFI applicant mode which made for a VERY distracting segment as if the viewer wouldn't notice the change.  I didn't appreciate the production trying to "fix" a shortfall in the original video and gives weight to the need of updating the entire experience.  The flight portions seemed to flow well, but it would have been nice to see a few more maneuvers than the basic minimum.  If you've watched the commercial check ride with Martha, this will be a step down in production quality, completeness and recency.

This course is basic, fundamental training in Risk Management for pilots that contains great wisdom and reflections on pilot characteristics in general, including some proclivity to minimize the recognition, evaluation and management of risk.  The RM tools recommended for preflight risk assessment and management and risk "scanning" and management in flight are wise, useful and should become routine components of our flight operations.

History of navigation equipment and cockpit use.  Could use another section with modern GPS units and better displays of MFD and flight computers to be current.  Overall good course.

The professionalism and thoroughness in which King Schools covers material is second to none. I have done a few courses through King and can say that I am always pleased at how magnificently their materials exceed my expectations. Their courses are very easy to understand because they painstakingly go through each step in the learning process. A+++++++ in my book!

Extremely helpful!

I've used the King Schools study courses from PPL through Commercial so far, and they really help.  John, Martha and the other instructors will explain the sometimes otherwise mundane concepts (such as everyone's favorite...the FARs)  in an entertaining, witty and informative way.  I'd recommend King Schools to anyone who is venturing out on their aviation journey.

Trying to learn a  foreign language, thank you for clearing up many unknowns

Great information in very concise context that is easy to remember.  Enjoyed taking as part of the overall IFR training package.

Everything was easy to use and worked great
