I bought the Pooley's PPL study books but I'm not starting my course until April so I am starting to read the books myself. At the moment I'm reading the Flight Training (Book 1) book and most of is common sense so far.
Obviously the books are numbered - should I read them in that order or if not which order is best?

Thanks

Most schools like you to have the Air Law exam passed before you fly your first solo and possibly also Navigation before solo cross-country.

But, other than that, whichever order you want.

Personally, I go for the ones with the least actual flying element to them like Human Factors and Meteorology as some of it may not make sense until you've flown an aircraft (well, it didn't for me and I did my PPL exams before I started the flying!)

Cheers

Cheers mate,
Nearly finished the human factors book. Was looking over the Radiotelephony one next.
