YOUR NEXT CHECKRIDE STARTS WITH A CONVERSATION.

Two ways to practice

Learn as you go.

Study mode gives you concise feedback, explanations, and sources after each answer. Work through the reasoning while it's fresh.

Stay in the hot seat.

Simulation mode keeps the conversation moving with natural follow-ups. Evaluations and teaching wait until the end.

Situations, not flashcards

One decision leads
to the next.

Choose where to jump in: planning, weather, airport operations, navigation, aircraft systems, and more. Set the scene at a metro, regional, rural, or verified real airport.

Mixed sessions connect cross-country decisions with aircraft systems. The default airplane is a stock 1978 Cessna 172N, grounded in a public Cessna POH.

ILLUSTRATIVE QUESTION · NOT A LIVE SESSION

Question 6 of 12

You've decided to divert. The weather there is now getting worse. What's your plan?

Explain your decision in your own words. Dictation is strongly encouraged; typing works too.

A session that fits your day

01

Pick your starting point

Choose a mode, a situation, and an airport environment. Most sessions run 12 questions, including follow-ups.

02

Answer aloud, book open

Keep the references handy. If you look something up, say where you found it. Sound reference use counts.

03

Leave with a clear focus

Get an honest overall assessment, an ACS-linked evidence table, and a few specific areas to review.

Grounded in the references

Keep the books beside you.
