Pros
This video is much more than just a primer, it is a great aid for multi training. Whether on a 141 or 61 program, it goes a bit beyond the maneuvers explaining general A/C operations. More importantly, it helps review, study and chair-fly all those

Cons
It could use a chapter dedicated just to emergency procedures and some more detail and/or diagrams for the main systems like; Retractable Gear(with a manual extraction demo), Trims/Autopilot, Fuel/Boost Pumps.

General Comments
Highly recomended for the transitioning pilot as well as for the add-on and or MEI.

The program does give a good introduction to what flying a twin will be like. There are good examples and explanations given as to what is going on during your training and different situations.

Cons
Nothing really

General Comments
I thought the program would be like a training program but it's actually more of an introduction to twin flying. Nevertheless, it does provide helpful hints for your training and gives the viewer and excellent idea of what to expect.

General Comments
I'm glad I bought the DVD. It was especially helpful as I got my rating in an Apache... which of course was very similar to the Aztec used in this DVD. This wouldn't be the case for the many who train in Seminoles. I think $49.95 would be closer to the mark.

There was a scene or two that talked about and showed an engine feathered and then went inside the airplane and the engine controls showed the other engine feathered.

This DVD was purchased for my son who is working on his multi. I thought it was a great review of multi aerodynamics, in preparation for his oral. It was also a good review for me, since I earned my multi over 30 years ago.
