Comment:
Professor Westbrooks has insightful and hilarious lectures that pull from his days as a Boeing 727 and Fokker 100 pilot for American Airlines (a.k.a. "Anonymous Airlines" in his class). He inspires you to know the industry and plan for a prosperous career. Do the few homework assignments and study a bit for the exams and an A is easy!

His classes are hilarious. He always has a bunch of stories to tell the class, which are all linked to the subject. He has a lot of experience in the field and makes sure to give us his experiences. Don't skip class, he hates that. Tests are kinda of hard, but fine Take this class, one of my favorites so far! Never cross the picket line!

Great professor! Easy to work with, classes are really about the real world information and not straight out of a textbook. (No text needed for AS 402) You can pass with just his PPT's and he gives a great study review already typed out! No brainer to pass. If you study any at all you should get an A.

Fantastic Professor! He was very clear with the course material. He is very witty and funny. He gives practical advise about the material. Sometimes, he strays and talks about life, but his stories do relate to the course. His tests are very detailed, but if you show up everyday, pay attention, and practice, it's very easy.

Great professor. Does tend to side track a little, but it's usually a story/topic you can learn from. Speaks from experience and actually knows what he is talking about. I enjoyed the class.

Tests start right away & if you mess 1 section on the practical, you get -10 pts on a 100 scale. Be ready to practice Aerosim in the lab for a couple hours preparing for the tests. Use a partner! Boring class most of time..lets videos play instead of him talk. Vague on directions. Preparation will earn A, not easy class to slide by.

Professor Westbrooks is one of the best and most personable professors ive had. if you are taking AS402, you have to try to get anything less than an A, and im not a good student. His stories are hilarious. Ask him why you need to keep a sewing needle in your flight bag.

Mr. Westbrooks is awesome. He is so knowledgeable about the airlines and wants his students to succeed. There is absolutely no reason to not get an A in this class. Tests are simple. You will WANT to go to this class every day. Recommended for everyone who wants to go into the airlines.

I enjoyed Captain Westbrooks very much, and learned a great deal of useful knowledge that I will take with me for the rest of my career. He genuinely cares about his students and wants them to succeed. Having a professor of this caliber is exactly why I chose to attend Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Awesome Professor! Take him!

Easy class. Professor tells a tn of stories from personal experience but those stories rarely pertain to what you will be tested on. Class doesn't usually start until 30-40 minutes into an hour long course. Good life lessons to be learned if you intend to go commercial. No real lessons for others.

The best class @ ERAU w/ Mr. Westbrooks. Super friendly, EASY, very open class discussions all the time. A certain "A". This man brings professionalism and experience AND laughter out in this class bringing out the passion within to be an airline pilot. Certainly, I wish I could take this class every single term. This is the best. class. ever.
