Another suggestion - invest in the regional flight guide and an FAA "AIM" well before you go out. These also contain lots of useful material about RT, airspace, local rules, etc. and are a cheap source of self-study material. It'll save you a lot of time and money when you get there. Between them expect to spend around $30, maybe the same again on the local charts (which the USians call "sectionals").

Study at home will improve the odds of getting let loose quickly and cheaply to enjoy your US flying.
