Alot of information to take in. But at the end of it, you feel as if you better understand avionics in general. It can give you the base knowledge you need to feel comfortable in the industry if you are just starting off.

For someone like me who is newer to Aviation, its a great class for getting more familiarized with basics of instruments/equipment. Its hard to understand something without knowing how or why it works or doesnt work and William did a good job of going into those things.
