A great selection of flight videos for entertainment and complete flight training materials fro every type of flight and class of aircraft. Their TestPrep materials have cut my study time by at least a factor of four. Items were processed on the day ordered or next day for items ordered late in the day. Items shipped by Standard Shipping arrived within 3-4 days (very good time for low cost). Lots of shipping options. And, they tell you where they are located which helps for deciding on options. Pretty centrally located. Very fast followups on contacts. - Wes Mill Creek, WAClick here for more comments
