Book from AFE "Question and Answer Simplifier"

i just got it and started to go through this book and see some questions which was not inside in "PPL-Confuser". Just as interest,a question to people who know both books and already done exam: which of this books are more close to original exam questions at CAA?

already found mistake...
In NAV section Paper 3, first question. If calculate with CRP-1, you never going to get answer 2 with 079°, it looks much more if it would be answer 1 with 076°, because my CRP-1 shows 077° and it is closer to 076°.
Does somebody have this book? new, 2006 edition?

I have the old confuser (navy blue cover) and was surprised at some of the answers in the Nav section. Is this edition known to have errors or is it me (probably) ?

The confuser (including the new JAA Green cover) has issues in several sections..... Still the best revision aid though IMHO

on the backside of cover there is "tens thousands of pilots have passed their PPL wraitten exams with Q and A Simplifier"



I i see from responses in this tread, nobody knows this book to compare with PPL-Confuser, which everybody knows. I just thrugh this book now and this book is 10 times easy than PPL-Confuser. Very strange...

I would like to know if any question in this (AFE) book exist in real exam at all?

I'm planning on getting the AFE questions and answers book too (still not got round to it )... surely someone has used it and can comment on how well it tests your knowledge for the exam? I had made up my mind, but now reading that this is easier than the confuser... thats not good!

PPL Confuser is more true to actual CAA/JAA PPL Questions IMHO!!
