few study questions

Postby Craig. » Tue Apr 08, 2003 2:43 am

since it is looking ever more likely i will be going to the states this summer to get my PPL, a number of the schools i have enquired to tell me to prepair for my written exam(s) while at home. but none actually have replied with what needs to be revised. i have  feeling it would be alot differant to the UK exams and so i was wondering if there is anyone who can perhaps give me some ideas for suggested reading and what else i need to make sure i know about before going over there. this perhaps might be one for brad to answer, but anyone else who knows, i would be very grateful
thanks

There are several items for preparation.  But most of these you will receive through your training program.  So, unless you want to pre-purchase them... I would just hold out.
HP Pavillion = p7-1233w
3.20GHz Processor
24GB of RAM (Windows 7 Home Premium only allows for 16GB though) :'(
Radeon 7560D - 4059MB
1TB SATA Internal Hard Drive

Hmmm... in order to the written exam, you need ground school or at least a self study course.

Not a problem... I always try to help when I can.  So, what part of the states you plan on coming to for the training (or school name)?
