What's New in Private and Recreational Pilot

10.0.0

February 21, 2018

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. This much updated version of RideReady has been rebuilt from the ground up to provide better speed, stability, and features for you. RideReady features a massive amount of Airman Certification Standards (ACS) and Practical Test Standards (PTS) compatible learning content to help you prepare for your next checkride. As the amount of illustrated learning content has grown to keep up with technological and FAA emphasis shifts, some devices had trouble keeping up. This new version is totally re-engineered to faster and more stable for all and also features a wealth of improved content from our editorial team consisting of Designated Pilot Examiners, Flight Instructors, and other industry professionals. New features include more flexible rendering options such as user-selectable text size and the ability to save and load sessions between devices using our free cloud sync service. RideReady can help you confident and prepared for your next checkride and with its free lifetime updates will be there for you when you want to review later on down the line.

Great App

I have tried to use other applications to help me study for various FAA tests but they would have outdated questions or it would only be a final test and not help with the preparation of the test. I believe that the work that was put into this app but all the other apps that they have made is extremely well thought out and done in a fashion that makes it easy for the user to customize what they need to study for and what they are having trouble remember for the test. They also have amazing customer support for any questions that you have or any problems you have with the app. I would recommend this app to anyone who wants to study for an FAA test and be able to study anywhere at anytime.

Too repetitive

Feels like 20-30% of the questions/answers are repeats and is not good for quick studying leading up to your Checkride. Is it accurate? Most likely yes and that's why I'm giving it a 3 instead of a 2. I've liked the other private pilot VFR apps from this company but seems like the content has not been cleaned up enough on this yet. It's also funny to see their responses to users submitting questions - responses seem combative and generally point out how wrong their users are. This is a good work in process but needs to be refined.

Dauntless RideReady

This app is wonderful. I'm getting back into flying after twenty years, my instructor suggested your software saying 'there have been some changes in airspace since you last flew(!)'; Dauntless is what he recommends to all his students.
I can feel I'm getting smarter already. Seriously, just a short time of review, alternating between, oh, yeah I remember that and huh?, makes it crystal clear the importance of absorbing and retaining this crucial information.
Bravo to Dauntless for creating such an elegant, useful tool.

Very happy with my purchase

There are nearly a 1000 checkride questions covered by this app, lovingly, with extremely useful illustrations and/or colloquial explanations. I feel very confident about passing my checkride with this app in my arsenal

UPDATE: Just passed my oral and checkride!!!
