just what I was afraid of

Thanks Cap101

I was afraid someone would confirm my doubts. Oxford or Bristol seem so much more comprehensive. How will I follow the syllabus of the course I have enrolled in, if I have a different set of manuals? This was never going to be easy but having 2 sets of manuals to work through is gonna be a lot tougher! I was trying to get through radio nav, and formulas and statements are just thrown in with no explanation as to how they got there and what they relate to exactly. I know as pilots we are supposed to be a smart bunch but if these are topics I has never explored, I need to be spoon fed the material from the start with good explanations, so I have a chance to understand, not just learn off by heart, which I can never do if I don't fully comprehend what I am learning. I guess I will try to get my hands on a set of recent Oxford/Bristol notes, or a new set. Bugger is all I can say right now!!!
