If you mean for Met only at a cheaper price, then no; it's a flat fee for all subjects.

Cheers

You mean you can't be bothered to study the subject? Well, OK then,just use the Question Bank and give it a try and let us know how you get on!

The Met section of the database ought to be fully functional.

It might be considered a 'rip off' if Met didn't work as well as the other subjects...

Zuluflyer, you are going to be a professional. commercial pilot; what do you think the answer is? If you're having difficulty understanding a subject, then get some help from your groundschool. Met is actually one of the more useful subjects and some understanding would really help!

Yes, I was sarcastic but sadly the reasoning behind my sarcasm was lost; hence the equally sarcastic gratitude.

Cheers

Whirls, don't be so harsh on yourself! You might have been slightly 'off' with zuluflyer, but not unduly.

The only sarcasm in the thread comes from zuluflyer when he reprimands you "thanks for the sarcasm".
