Excellant Format

Extremely well written. Provides great descriptions of sometimes difficult to understand/visualize aviation concepts. I appreciated how the chapters were organized ... starting with the necessities (foundational concepts/basic math) and gradually stepping up the level of complexity with each subsequent chapter. Plenty of room for margin notes when there is a need to jot down and "fyi" or two.
Still haven't finished reading but

so far it gave me a very good impression! I strongly recommend, even for non-pilots. It's a very good book to sharpen everyday mental-math-skills! Enjoy!

If you are a little underconfident with your math skills,... Helped me review my math formulas and feel much more confident about having to do math in an airline interview. Good study book!
