What's New in PrivatePilot & Commercial HELI

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.

Does what it is supposed to… needs improvement

If you’re expecting to be able to generate practice test, don’t download this app.

The app has many great questions and is a good way to study.
The app seems to run properly and is t complicated

Great app but, it would be much better if it could generate practice tests.

Way Over priced

The information contained in the app is accurate, but no way can they justify charging $50 for this. It doesn’t even have a practice test that grades you. I really wish I could just be refunded and should have stuck with the ASA app.

Excellent app and content, really helping my study

Ignore those bad reviews from several years ago. This app is now top notch, running fine on my iPad, and the content is broad and thorough.

They now have a selector for rotor direction, questions specific to R22, R44, and Schweitzers.

If you do happen to find an issue with a question or answer, there is a very easy feedback built right in, and they clearly act on the feedback. For example, on a question about Altimeter vs GPS, they incorporated a note from a user about the difference in the sphere model used. Maybe not necessary for the check ride, but I’m not studying for the check ride, I’m studying to be a safe and knowledgeable pilot. The check ride is just a gate to get through.

So please, don’t let those old reviews scare you — this app is a great learning tool.

Not good

This app needs work it has only Robinson helicopter questions I fly a 300cbi.

Useful app but...

This is a useful study application if you're working towards your private or commercial helicopter certification. It gives you series of questions and answers in flashcard format - question on one side, answer on the flip side. It also gives you information pertaining to the question and answer directly from the POH, Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, etc. However, in my opinion, it's NOT worth the price. It's a great study aid and I'm sure a lot of time and effort went into making it, but if I was given the option to buy it again, I doubt I would. If it were $10 or less, it would have gotten a higher rating from me.
