reviews
At last. A book someone can feel proud to own and enjoy. 
I remember my days as a student in Philadelphia training to become an aircraft mechanic in the '70's. We had interesting instructors but the most horrific text books. They resembled this one except ours did not have an index. It was a nightmare to find something when studying for a quiz, among other things. Jeppesen has performed a miracle by upgrading the text and including new diagrams , some with color. The cost may scare some away from ownership but the investment is worth it, for students or A&P mechanic wanabees. Touche, Jeppesen!

Not great, but probably no better alternative. 
Chances are if you're considering buying this book it's because you've been assigned it as part of your A&P program. The book is fine, has some good illustrations, and some nice clear passages explaining a wide range of topics. On the other hand, there are mistakes all through this book. My A&P instructors led me to make changes at least twice in every chapter we studied, and the electricity section is particularly confusing. The authors apparently weren't able to decide whether to go with electron flow theory or to teach the (incorrect) conventional theory. They present the electron flow theory but proceed to repeatedly refer to conventional theory in their explanations. This leads to all kinds of confusion to a less-than-careful reader. In the end, the textbook is fine. Read your homework and ask questions in class on stuff you don't understand, and don't be surprised when you find out that Jeppesen was wrong.
