## Airplane Flying Handbook Reviews in United States

### ****- "Excellent in describing the fundamentals"
An updated version that comports with the current ACS would be welcome but in general I think this ought to be read end to end by any student pilot.
-- Nardulli, 2020-02-16

### **--- "Outdated"
As others have mentioned, this app uses an outdated version of the Flying Handbook.

Also, the app hasn’t been formatted to the iPhone X screen size. 

Hoping these fixes should be published as an update by the developer.
-- human_______________, 2019-01-03

### *---- "Outdated book being sold."
I just bought this and downloaded it only to find that it is an outdated version.
-- SJP907, 2018-05-11

### ****- "Great app, but not optimized for 6s Plus"
Much easier than the pdf, and easy to navigate. 4 stars instead of 5 because it isn't optimized for 6s Plus.
-- Mickey Haller, 2016-06-17

### ***** "Great App"
I am a student pilot and I found this App Very helpful and very well designed.
I recommend it!
-- Warrior836, 2016-05-03

### ***** "Way Better than a PDF"
I don't know what the one reviewer is talking about. I love this thing and as a student going for a check ride and wanting to be a great pilot, I use it all the time. Great way to view the AFH, IMO...
-- wattsbox, 2016-03-08

### ****- "Simple helper"
It is useful to read at cafe or anywhere if you do not have heavy PPL text book.
-- Kwongoalie, 2015-08-19

### **--- "Too hard to navigate!"
The layout of the shell software is too tricky. Buttons are not intuitive.  You would do just as well to DL the pdf from the FAA website and use ibooks to read it
-- Horizon pilot, 2014-09-13

### ***** "Airplane Handbook"
Excellent summary with great graphics; I recommend this for all pilots!
-- DPEDAVE, 2013-06-16

### ***** "Super Graphics"
You've done a great job!
-- Rick528, 2013-03-17
