  • App needs work

    Firstly, Sheppard Air is a great tool for studying. This review is only about the app. Sadly, I am not happy with this app as it crashes very often making it quite frustrating when I’m studying and lose my place due to it crashing.
  • They didn’t refund my money back!

    I called the company and spoke with who says been the chief of instructors, and even after I explain that I didn’t do any Written test by FAA and didn’t finish any of the quizzes, he said that it wasn’t there fault and won’t refund and even change for another course before I would pay again!
    Obs: You have to do this by phone, they don’t have any form of fill the information online and you cannot request by Apple!

  • Great study program

    This program helped me to ace my IRA exam. You will spend a lot of time going through the study process step by step but it is time well spent. Great customer support and very up to date. Thanks Sheppard Air!
  • Awesome, just plain awesome!

    I just passed my Instrument Rating Airplane knowledge test with a 100% score in a total time of 29 minutes. I am 52 and spent a good few months prepping and studying gone through two books, Gleims test prep, then Sheppard Air’s app. Yes you have to allocate some 25-30 hours to this and REALLY follow the methodology to review the 1100+ questions they have in the program. You will lean A LOT in the process (not rote) and this is the best weapon against those tricky questions that don’t test your knowledge and designed to just catch you out. They also flag many questions where the FAA answer is wrong, so you know which to pick. Zero, I mean Zero surprises in any of the 60 question I got. I recognized 6 that were on my “extra” review list. Also, one of the biggest differentiators is the unlimited support. I studied mostly late at night PT, and there was always someone to speak with (THANK YOU Dorothy) who was qualified to help me solve the problems I could not understand (again not a rote learning program). These guys are the BEST! And far cheaper than any of the other competitors.

  • Guaranteed success!

    Sheppard air is definitely the way to go when it comes down to studying for the FAA written.I have tried other apps before, but none come close to how accurate Sheppard air is. Sheppard air provides you with the confidence needed on the day of test taking. I will definitely come back for my cpl and atpl!

  • The Best Test Prep Period

    I enjoy the features that the new app brings, and it uses a similar overall design to the old app. The test prep is the same proven formula as the past. There’s a reason everyone recommends these guys. No nonsense up to date question bank.
  • Old app was better

    ...
  • Truly poorly written

    This app is so poorly written it’s ridiculous. Not only is it like zero thought went into the user interface, it’s as if they were actively trying to think of ways to make it annoying. Constantly have to religion with fixed credentials you can’t change that are saved and displayed every time you open the app. But seriously I just accidentally rotate my iPad and it logs me out and I have to click like 15 times to get back where I was.

    Pop up messages everywhere all the time and they’re all useless because they repeat over and over and over so you NEVER look at any of them. If you’re reading this you’ve probably already bought a subscription because it seems to be the only way to get the real questions. But serious this app stabs you in the eyeball every time you launch it.

    Who thought it was a good idea to put notes in dark blue text against a nearly black background???!! Completely unreadable.

    Looking at figures is super annoying. Why can’t it just show them by default?? When would you ever NOT want to see the figure that’s going to be on the exam? Takes at least two clicks to show the question and the figure EVERY time and then you’re going to get immediately logged out and have to do it again.

    Seriously. I would fix so many of the stupid things in your user interface for free just so that I personally don’t have to experience the pain anymore. How about you make your app open source and just require a login to get access to the question database or something?

    Awful.

    SERIOUSLY AWFUL.

    But you will pass. Not going to help you with the oral since it is 100% focused on the written. But you’ll pass.

  • Well worth the money. Absolutely love this iPad version

    I used Sheppard for the IRA and FII exams. I scored a 100% on both of those exams. I bought Sheppard again for CAX commercial airplane and scored another 100%! All I did was follow their study strategy and try to understand each question I was reading.

    Furthermore, this app is well designed. It has a few bugs and I hate how it resets every time you leave the app but it saves your place so you just resume studying. I prefer to have it on my iPad so it’s always with me, even when I’m waiting for an airplane prior to a lesson. This version is much better than the older version that’s also available on the App Store. I used that one for instrument, and it worked but this one is better optimized.

    Overall, highly recommend Sheppard. It’s gotten me three 100s so far out of the two courses I’ve bought and I’ll definitely be buying it again when it’s time for the FIA and FOI writtens.

  • Simply the best

    Uses actual source references to explain the answers.
    The most practically intuitive thorough and accurate prep I can find anywhere. I have become a prep connoisseur and have purchased several before arriving at this conclusion.
