Summary: Limited Use 2007-12-15
Comment: Might be a good book for someone who is unfamiliar with MS Flight Sim. For me it was way too basic. Suggest you try something else if you have any experience with any MS Flight Sim.

Summary: Nothing useful here... 2007-04-02
Comment: Although there are some interesting excercises in this book, it didn't have the extensive, detailed "nuts & bolts" information I was looking for. Each subject is a basic overview followed by "see the learning center for more information".
I was hoping for detailed information on all controls and instruments, the information that's NOT found in the FS2004 learning center.
In short, don't waste your money.

Summary: Dud! 2007-01-09
Comment: This product doesn't run. I could never get it to work, even after applying all the fixes that Microsoft had ready on its website. I'm still not sure what to do with it.

Summary: Good Resource 2006-03-19
Comment: I purchased this book after I read the other reviews. Some of them were not as good as others. I have long been a fan of Flight Simulator and I have purchased all the hints book to go along with each one. I found this book to be a great resource and I have used it daily.
