$200/hr is just crazy/stupid
books needed:
Gleim Private Written Exam Prep
"Stick and Rudder" - Wolfgang Langewiesche
Airplane Flying handbook - FAA
Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge - FAA
Aviation Weather - FAA
Your Aircraft POH - you seriously need this one
Don't waste your money on the Jepp stuff... it's good, but the above books are better and cost significantly less... study the books... if you study the Gleim you can't possibly fail the written test. The FAA books have exactly what you need to know in them. I would say use the King videos..but I couldn't manage to stay awake during them, save money on ground school,
Move to a cheaper place if you are going through all your ratings (the local flight school will do multi+instruction for $200/hr)
