Jason Schappert does it again.

Jason is usually top notch but this wasn’t good. He made some errors. 91.185 is lost comms, he said it was 91.85! Had to rewind a few times because I couldn’t believe he said that. Also he says you need an IPC after the 66HIT. Not true. There is a six month grace period where you can fly with a safety pilot holding a PPL in same cat/class and has a valid medical. He repeatedly mentions FAA-H citations but fails to cite the regs and the AIM as much as he could have/should have, which is a huge waste of time to people preparing for a CR. (At the CR we will have the far/aim out, no one is showing up with FAA-H-8083-something to reference at their checkride!) Scant discussion of fronts (cold fronts was the only one discussed in depth.) A lot of time wasted breaking down METARs and TAFs that all private pilots do all the time anyway. No discussion on why someone would request a contact approach (just that you as the pilot would do it, and ATC wouldn’t solicit it.) Feels like Jason didn’t put his heart into this one!!

Jason does an excellent job reading his book in the audiobook version and I used it to memorize key requirements. It's no replacement for actual ground school but it's definitely helpful.

Great tool for getting your instrument! Helped my ground go by super easily!

Overall pretty helpful. It's a little light on depth and some information on the regulations are out of date.
