    You make a good point , but it’s a bit hard to highlight some details on the web , or you can print , but that brings you back to paper , might as well get the book as I have ……glad I did

    Why would anyone purchase this book when it is available free from the FAA’s website?

      Some people still appreciate a ‘hard-copy,’ paper book 🙂 Often, I am forced to print something after downloading electronically; as Bruno comments, “might as well get the book.” But if a person reads and retains better from the electronic version, good for them!
