United StatesFailure with iOS 6
Will not work with iOS 6. Very disappointing that they are not ahead of iOS releases.
United StatesDoesn't work new iPad & IOS6
Bought the iPad app and the intro loaded up with good video but once it completed and went to the main menu, only the audio would play.
United StatesGood instructor, but...
I was disappointed in the video's resolution, in particular, in-flight views of the 530W map screen. The waypoints are not easily readable, if at all. I would have preferred an animation, or at least, a closer view of the screen. In some segments, I could not identify waypoints mentioned in the audio, because they were either illegible or off screen. When NAV indicators are part of the instruction, a split screen may have worked better than showing unnecessary panel area. Approach plates for each lesson can be viewed in the app but not printed. A workaround is to take a screenshot on the iPad and AirPrint from Photos, or email it to yourself and print it. There are ways to retain good resolution, even with highly compressed video. Had the map screens been sharper, I would have rated a 4 or 5.
United StatesGood well organized
Enjoyed the video, and felt it was very well-organized and able to pick up many tips. I think I enjoyed it so much I felt like it ended too soon. Hint hint, make the next ones a little longer. I am hungry to learn more about the 530 and the secrets behind it.
