"Look no further Pilots!!" according to Thruascope. My instructor recommended this book during my initial IFR training, this product covers a vast majority of all IFR procedures along with great humor! It's just nice to see a down to earth funny guy with a ton of expertise make an instructional book that is well worth the read. I Took this book with me everywhere all the way up to check ride and I continue to open it up and just learn.
