Best books and apps for PPL beginners?

[ShawnM]

Well, I already have the paper edition so I am good but thanks for the offer ...

It was actually surprisingly nice feeling to have a true paper book in my hands again but ultimately, can't beat the convenience of having 100+ books on my iPad

No worries, just wanted to offer. I do have a few paper books, John Grisham, for leisurely reading. (purchased used of course )

I dont have hundreds but I do have several flying books on my iPad. It's main use is for my plane and flying. I have every manual for every part on the plane from nose to tail on my iPad. It's all I need when I head off to the airport.

It looks like im gonna download this to myself too... looks very nice

Eddie,

Which edition of Stick and Rudder is that?

It helped mold the person that I am today.

I think the book that made me the man I am today is the Anarchist's Cookbook.

Now that is funny!

I would resist buying apps, especially expensive navigation apps, until further in your training.

I use iOS devices, and these are some free ones I suggest:

FlyQ Insight
AeroWeather
AutoDens

Don't forget that Hilton Software provides a free trial subscription to WingX Pro7 for student pilots.

The VFR version of WingX Pro is only $.99/year.
A very nice feature is the simulator, to practice on.
It is excellent. I have been using it for over 4 years.

FltPlan Go for Android, iOS & Windows 10 is also a free app that packs a good punch for $0
