User reviews

Great practice for the harder questions.

I bought other courses outside this app on the $300 range and the test between the 2 was very close. I appreciated this app far more as it focused on the harder questions. It made me read the charts and got me very familiar the testing supplement figures. I highly recommend it. Was able to finish with a 93% on the PAR.

Powered flight questions for glider pilot

I’m studying for my Private Glider Pilot license. Even though I’ve selected PGL, questions that are obviously for powered pilots show up occasionally, 5% to 10% of the time. This is extremely frustrating. I may consider using a different app.

Worth the money

I just got a 80 on my PAR using this and the computer version. I say it’s great to study on the go. I know it’s not the best score but it’s a passing score. And I’m happy with it! The hard part about using it on the phone is doing any course plotting is hard since the screen is so small and you can’t really see the maps so well and put your plotter on top to practice but if you screen shot and send the image to your iPad it helps. Good luck!

I wouldn’t rely solely on this

I got a 90% on my PAR written exam today but that’s after memorizing everything this app had to offer and learning some basics of flying in the aircraft. 1/3 of the questions I’ve either never seen were in the test, or the the questions and answers were worded very differently from Prepware. I think the FAA has finally caught on to students rote memorizing Prepware questions to pass the written instead of understanding the material and using critical thinking.

93 on my PAR today

Worth every penny! Used this over the last two weeks as a final prep to my PAR exam. There was 4 total questions on my exam that this app didnt have. All others were either word for word or close enough I was rest.

Amazing app
