  • Poor app.

    About the only good thing that I can say about this app compared to the GroundSchool app that I ended up mostly using is that this one cost less. other than that, I found it pretty buggy .. For example, when you click on "grade" it gives you a box "do you want to grade" but only one choice essentially.. Yes. Howeve,r the biggest problem is the explanations. They are generally little more than restatements of the correct answer, and none are illustrated, it's particularly bad for flight planning questions.. It's basically impossible to learn those, weather, weight and balance, and performance questions since the explanations are so meager. This app is clearly aimed only at those who want to memorize, not learn.

  • Excellent and now with the ARE YOU SURE BUTTON!

    I did my exam today and got 95% because of this software its great! I totally recommend it!
    Thanks for listening and adding the 'Are you sure button' a little late for me and the update for the new questions but they were pretty similar and someone else will definitely benefit from it. Plus I can now check the ones I got wrong.
    I sit with my left hand on the top left corner so every now and then during a test I would hit the back butting and drive myself insane so am very glad you put that fail safe in. Hopefully you added it to your other stuff as well as I'll be getting those soon too.
    Thanks again!

  • Nice!

    I just got home from passing my private pilot written - this app helped a lot! This was worth the money to help me review and improve my test taking skills.

    Pros: reference images are provided and of moderate quality; "study" mode and "test" mode for review and practice, respectively; accurate and comprehensive question bank; satisfactory interface; airplane, glider, lighter-than-air, powered parachute, and rotorcraft test question options included; comprehensive explanations

    Cons: no way to systematically study, since the questions are random (Invest in a book, for heaven's sake! If you can read text on an iPhone, you can read a book!)

    I am also satisfied with this application's stability; it has worked perfectly for me from the start.

  • Very useful app and a great deal for $10

    Really nice app. The only big drawback are the questions that reference a chart or diagram. They are too cumbersome to expand and view. The regular study/test questions and the explanations of the correct answers works very well. For $10 it beats the hell out of programs that cost a lot more. Plus the portability of being able to do a question while you're stuck at a light, waiting for an appointment, etc, is great. It would be nice if you could vary the length of the test modules. Right now all you can do are 60 questions per session. Not that it matters because you can shut off the app any time and fire it back up to see new questions.
