Every once in awhile a product comes along that makes each member of our staff exclaim, "Wow!"
The Jeppesen GFD Private Pilot Manual is the first book that has consistently produced such a reaction from everyone who has seen it. In our opinion, this is simply the finest learn-to-fly manual ever produced. It contains information that every pilot needs, whether student or experienced instructor, and you'll be using it as your aviation encyclopedia long after you've completed your training.
The GFD Private Pilot Manual was the first GFD product to be released. Unlike its predecessors, the new Private Pilot Manual uses thousands of full-color graphics to help you more easily grasp important concepts. It's designed to help you learn quickly, right from the start.

GFD videos and multimedia software products.

As you progress through training, you'll find that the revolutionary GFD System leads you through essential aeronautical knowledge and exposes you to a wide variety of interesting and useful information which will enhance and expand your understanding of the world of aviation.
