I would like to get that if possible. I don't have enough posts to send PM's yet, but if you could email the link to me I would appreciate it!

You can find the website here:

The software they put together is very good, particularly if you're going to be teaching students. It is a bit expensive though (~$100), but they have CDs for the 172, the Piper Warrior and the Piper Seminole.
Looks like some good software. Unfortunately I can't find the Seminole CD for less than $149. That is a bit too much. I guess the book will just have to do for now!!

Download iTunes on your computer. go to the podcast section, click on "educational", then work your way through it to the UND podcast. There are about twenty on there, but this on is complex aircraft systems

I did my commercial multi-engine with a CFI that was also an A&P. We would open the cowlings on the planes that we flew and he would explain the different systems to me and occasionally common issues that they might have. I leared quite a bit this way.
