Talking Performance Help Desperately Needed

I need help desperately with performance. I have 13 out of 14 with one sitting left. Anyone got any feedback or any ideas on how I can nail this subject???
Cheers.

Cool

Yes, Paul, TurboJ's right - it's called "Question Bank & Practice Exams for the JAA CPL & ATPL - 1000 Q&A".
It's available from the main pilot shops - I just checked out Pilot Warehouse (www.pilotwarehouse.co.uk) and they sell it for £35.00 + P&P. Delivery within 2-3 days.
Tel. 01442 851 087
I guess you've got all the relevant Oxford/Jeppesen manuals and feedback.
Congratulations on getting all the other ticks in the boxes!
Gimme a call one of these days (since you don't check your PM).

Ze Frenchman.

Performance

I have a number from an instructor at Oxford who does private lessons, did 3 hours with him and everything fell into place well worth the money, makes it so easy to understand. I was having the same problem but managed it on my 2nd sitting as i didnt want to risk it

If you want his Number send me a private message and i will send you. My advice is speak to him at least very switched on

Hope this maybe some help

Good luck in whatever you do

Paulscho, have you considered one of the Oxford crammer days with Chris Perry, the superb South African chap?

This guy knows Perf to the tenth degree and has a very good way of explaining those god-awful concepts with some rather neat drawings.

Highly recommended!

Good luck with your last sitting, you'll do it!

Another endorsement for the one-day crammer at Oxford. Chris Perry really does know his stuff and is excellent at de-mystifying the 'Perf-Thing'. Certainly helped me and it's surely worth the effort if you have them all hanging on this one!!

Oxford it will be!! Will spend 2-3 weeks serious study then go down and try and get a day with Chris Perry or Steve Francis who is another excellent South African instructor for Perf and Met.
Thanks everyone!!!
