    • Includes PTS supplements
    • Has a suggested course outline guide
  • Sporty's "What you should know" IFR Rating DVD series
    • Includes Practice test CD
  • Exams4Pilots.Org for practice tests anywhere and anytime I could slide a few in.
  • King IFR Checkride DVD's.
  • FAR/AIM
  • Weather Flying by Robert Buck - Get this. Read it. It is awesome.
Now that my written is out of the way, almost 100% of my studying for the checkride will be from the FAR/AIM. The examiner could care less what your text book says, he wants to see you know what and where the FAR/AIM says it.
Wow great score!! Congrats--I can't seem to break 90 on the practice tests!
