## What is UK Ground School?

UK Ground School is the complete ground exam companion for UK student pilots — PPL(A), NPPL(A) and microlight. Built around the CAA syllabus and UK rules (SERA, the ANO and CAP 413), not generic international content.

STUDY THE FULL SYLLABUS
• Structured training modules across all nine PPL subjects — Air Law, Meteorology, Navigation, Aircraft General Knowledge, Flight Performance & Planning, Human Factors, Communications, Flight Planning and Principles of Flight
• Dedicated NPPL(A) and microlight courses, plus Night, IMC(R) and Aerobatic rating material
• Clear, plain-English lessons with diagrams, key facts and a "What we learned" recap at the end of every module

PRACTISE LIKE THE REAL EXAMS
• A large bank of CAA-style multiple-choice questions with detailed explanations for every answer
• Mock exams in the real CAA format with pass marks, timing and per-subject breakdowns
• Smart Review (spaced repetition) that schedules questions exactly when you're about to forget them
• Mistakes drill that targets the questions you keep getting wrong

TALK TO THE TOWER
• RTC radio practice: speak to an AI air traffic controller across 16 realistic scenarios — taxi, circuits, MATZ penetration, emergencies and more — and get instant CAP 413 feedback
• Standard phraseology lessons and an RTC exam mode

TOOLS PILOTS ACTUALLY USE
• Interactive UK airspace map with class boundaries, ATZs and danger areas
• Live METAR/TAF with a plain-English decoder
• Flight computer (CRP-style calculations), mnemonics library and personal study plan
• Progress tracking across every subject so you always know what to revise next

YOUR AI INSTRUCTOR
• Stuck on a concept? Ask the built-in AI instructor and get an explanation grounded in UK rules and your syllabus
