Cool ATPL Q&A on Ebay!

I was perusing Ebay earlier today (study relief!) and came across this book that's up for auction - follow link.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...&category=4783

As i'm currently doing the ATPL ground school i was wondering if it may be a worthwhile investment . Anyone of you used the same book and was it's content any good? Cheers boys n' girls!

Might help

That said if you put the work in and complete all of your schools feedback questions you should be ok.

IMHO (based upon 14 1st time passes as a heli wannabe having to take a predominately 'plank' based course) I'd save the money and trust your groundschool provider, who will have much more up to date feedback questions.

Pink - Was thinking the same myself!!

It is only £15 brand new off one of the various online flight shop websites anyway. Personally I would rather have a "clean" copy. My experiences of ebay lately is that there are a lot of people who have no idea of somethings worth and pay way over the odds.

It's good for the seller, sure - best i've seen is some muppet paying £238 for a GPS Transair were selling new for £120... wish I had sold my one...

Be careful!

The question bank changes all the time, after appeals cause withdrawals and new questions are added. I dont know how old the book is, but I think you would get better value for money by ringing up bristol groundschool and asking how much they would charge you for their question bank CD - which WILL be bang up to date.

Also, the book in the link did not have q's for all the subjects you will have to take.
