Greetings,

Are there DVD's available that provide a detailed explanation on the following:
- FMS
- Boeing 737NG (systems)
- CRJ (systems)
I am more of a visual person; I am able to comprehend and have a better grasp of things when I see them.
I would greatly appreciate if you could guide me on how and where I could go about acquiring them.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Jascha:

Thanks for your question, I will try to assist!

As for the Boeing 737 NG, try www.flightsim.no for a source on this.

For the CRJ systems, try www.worldairroutes.com to see if the Styrian DVD is of assistance.

For FMS, there might be something at http://shop.pilotwarehouse.com.uk

There are also some good books on the subject of FMS out there.  Just do a Google search (www.google.com) to find one that fits your needs or search on www.amazon.com

Best wishes to you,

Answer
Hi,

I do not know your specific needs, so, it would be hard for me to specify for you.  If I were you, I would review the descriptions of each of the DVDs and also see if you can find reviews on each of them (plug their names into separate searches) and then figure out for yourself which ones to buy.

I am sorry I can not be of more assistance.

Sincerely,

David A. NewMyer
