# FlightReady Academy vs PPL Quiz

The clearest difference is update cadence: FlightReady Academy at fortnightly against PPL Quiz's every 8 months. FlightReady Academy also leads on ratings volume (895 vs 14) and review sentiment (60% vs 50%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FlightReady Academy sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and PPL Quiz sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for FlightReady Academy against 4.7 for PPL Quiz. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FlightReady Academy has 895 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of FlightReady Academy's written reviews are positive against 50% of PPL Quiz's.

FlightReady Academy ships an update fortnightly, PPL Quiz every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
