Which Online/Downloadable IFR Course Do You Like?

[dcrogers11]

I'm looking at online/downloadable IFR courses available to use for study for the written and wondering what those that have used this type tool have had success with.  I've got a 6-7 year old Sporty's version that I never felt was detailed enough.  It must be have online and downloadable content as I would like to study offline at times.  Is King the best or are there others?

Thanks,

Don

I did the Gleim IFR course a couple years ago and it was okay.   There were some things I had to research on my own, but overall it got me what I needed to know.   Stuff like this is hard to judge, because few people have used more than one.

I’ve used the King courses for private, instrument and commercial. I’ve heard Sheppard Air is better at feeding you questions but I actually wanted to learn the material and not just learn how to answer questions to pass a test.

I was satisfied with all of my written exam scores.

King Schools all the way.  They make the material easy to learn, fun and their guided learning system really helps you to get a great score.

I did the Sporty's Instrument on Ipad.  My understanding is that you can update that app for free with all the new updated regs and what not.

I’ll put a plug in for Gold Method for being able to pass the test.

To pass the written is very much understanding how standardized tests are written...

Select the cheapest source that has all the questions and answers...

Practice, practice, practice...

You will find the ones you get wrong, are often questions you didn’t understand completely... didn’t understand, what they are asking...

Once you review all the ones you get wrong... you can see how sinister the system is...

I used something I found on the internet for free... scored a 98%.

 

As far as learning the systems and flying IFR... I used American Flyers... they also have a ground school and online system that I used a few years later when I really committed to get the IR seriously...

Jeppeson has a text book that is like taking a college course and covers the knowledge aspect incredibly well... a great read.
