While this book may be good for an absolute first timer, it is a total waste of money for a familiar user. I purchased it in hopes of learning how to properly use the instruments for approaches/landing and the control tower. All of the lessons in the book refer you back to the "Learning Center" (on your computer) - why even bother using this book. For someone looking to have a paper reference to coach them through something, this book is not it! I wanted a step by step lesson and it gave me "try the Learning Center." It also skips over a lot of the key steps and assumes you already know how to do certain things. What makes this book even worse is that it doesnt even provide a list of common commands. My advice: Don't Bother.
