NO INDEX! & LITTLE ELSE.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002: Sybex Official S&S (Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets) (Paperback)
As the author of 24 books and the holder of an Airline Transport Pilot Licence and Flight Instructor Rating, I feel qualified to comment on this book. The cover says it has "comprehensive coverage of both standard and professional editions including the new interactive air traffic control feature." In fact the words "air traffic control" do not appear in the table of contents and the book has no index! I have yet to find the alleged ATC coverage, The book contains much extraneous information and no helpful software data, no troubleshooting guide, no guide to keystroke comands. Nothing on how to use the autopilot. It is as confusingly organized as the sof tware's so-called "help" files. It provides 13 identical "fill-in-the-blanks" aircraft checklist forms, one for each aircraf t in the software, using up 32 of the book's 156 pages. What a waste of space. Don't waste your money.

This review is from: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002: Sybex Official S&S (Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets) (Paperback)
I've seen better, but I've also seen worse.The guide has received some very negative reviews, but I found it useful. Agreed, it could have been a lot better (the guide for Combat Flight Simulator 3 proves this), and an index would have been handy. And another thing: this guide mostly contains stuff which should have come with the game in the first place. At least Sybex offers an alternative to not having to burn out your own printer or making do without any documentation. All in all, I think it was a good purchase.

A must read if you own Flight Simulator 2002,
By mark58@lineone.net (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002: Sybex Official S&S (Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets) (Paperback)
This is a fantastic book by all means. If you are a flight simulator fanatic then you have to buy this...The book written by David Chong has everything in it about flight simulator 2002, both the standard and proffesional editions of it. I would even suggest buying it if you are a proud owner of any of the other flight simulator versions (98 and 2000) because this features everything about those games too. The only difference with this flight simulator books to others is that this is a little more updated and it is an official book written by real pilots. So what more can i tell you... I hope this review has helped you and happy reading!
