Hello, I would like to buy the DIGITAL ATPL Ground School Manual from aerocourse if anyone has it. They give you 1 year access if you attend their seminars.

It will be linked to your account on the website. I just need a few hours of access.

This is what it looks like:

It’s a great course, well put together but…

Let me get this right. You want a few hours of access (to rip the material) that someone built a business on by stealing the course content? That’s theft and it certainly lacks any kind of professional integrity.

Hi TPC

Great course indeed. The IFR seminar was very helpful when I took it a year ago.

That being said, we will have to agree to disagree, since it seems we have very different philosophies.

In my opinion, charging a yearly subscription for a static book is theft. When you buy physical books, you don't pay yearly fees... And you could resell them. So why would someone not be able to resell me their digital book?

Is the ground school manual the material that’s covered in the class?

That's not an opinion. That's a (false) claim of fact. The copyright holder has the final legal and moral/ethical say on how their product is used. You may not like that, but someone not giving you the product of their labour for free is not theft. Grow up.

Booksellers are entirely within their rights renting books instead of selling them. In fact, that is occasionally done. The fact that it isn't the norm is a choice of business model, not a reflection of right and wrong (or legal and illegal).

Because they don't own it. You can't sell something you don't own. THAT is theft (or fraud, or both).

Not 100% sure, since I haven't attended the ATPL seminar, but I have the 3rd edition physical book. It's about 700 pages and it's quite detailed.

I assume it's much more detailed than the seminar. Similar to how From the Ground Up is more detailed than a typical ground school for ppl/cpl.

pm me if you want a scanned copy
