Great for Review!

I used this app, along with the Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge and Gold Seal’s Ground School and other FAA resources to get a 92% on my written! Would definitely recommend getting this app!

January 2026 PASSED

Did well on the written exam. Most of these questions are VERBATIM on the exa!. Some things I would recommend studying that I didn’t see in this app are Soft/Short Field landings and gust factor! Good luck everyone!

Gets the job done!

Took my time and went through all the “learning mode” modules. Took my PAR today and got a 87.
I’d advise to look at parking procedures, what to do for emergency landing procedures, and where in the traffic pattern you may encounter power-on-stalls. These things appeared on my test. Good luck everyone

Affordable Prep with Value

Instead of spending hundreds of dollars on courses, studying through the question banks (Learning Mode) helped me achieve what I needed through my PPL written journey. I loved the different mode, especially with options to take simulated tests and ability to review both Learning & Test sessions I had completed. While the explanations aren’t perfect, given the price, this app is a great self-studying tool.

Really appreciate the app!

This app was great practice for the PAR exam, along with some studying from the PHAK (which I understand you can download for free from the FAA if you don’t want a physical book), and some further research on how to do calculations with the help of the AI on the internet.

I would recommend picking 1 topic at a time in learning mode, as well as making notes as you continue to do your own research on the topics in the PHAK.

So don’t try to cover all topics in one day though, as there are over 1000 questions in the question bank.

Once you feel confident, give the test mode a go and just keep at it.

Give yourself enough time to prepare for the test as well. This is for the foundation of your future, so it’s well worth investing in. I studied 2-5 hours almost everyday for about 3 weeks and passed the test first time around, so I’m sure most people will be able to succeed if they put in the effort.

Lastly, get yourself a e6b or electronic flight computer, a physical sectional chart, and some scratch paper. It will put you ahead of the game for the future if you grasp the basics of calculating center of gravity, course correction/wind correction angles, and can actually read a map when in a pinch!
