Title: FAA Exams Post by: pilotboy27 on May 15, 2007, 08:57:38 PM Hello all,
Since I havent started my training yet, Im not sure about the exams I need to take? I plan on attending Delta Connection Academy in July, but I want to be as prepared as possible before I go. Are there any tests that I can be studying for before I actually start class there? Are there any tests I could have out of the way before I start class? I have heard a little bit about the airman knowledge test, but dont know anything about the exam. Is it a test I need to have out of the way before I begin flying, or just before I get my Private? What materials are best to start studying? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

The FAA Study Question bank is available online- http://www.faa.gov/education_research/testing/airmen/test_questions/ These free sites also help you master the material: http://4vfr.com/ http://www.exams4pilots.org Are there any tests I could have out of the way before I start class? Not really. You need to have an instructor sign you off to take the knowledge exams. I have heard a little bit about the airman knowledge test, but don't know anything about the exam. Is it a test I need to have out of the way before I begin flying, or just before I get my Private? You need to have it completed before you can take your flight test. The Private written consists of 60 multiple-choice questions on:Airplanes and Aerodynamics Airplane systems Federal Aviation Regulations Airports and airspace Airplane performance Aeromedical factors Weather Navigation Cross-country flying All you want to know about what is covered, test descriptions and the testing process can be found in the: PRIVATE PILOT KNOWLEDGE TEST GUIDE (http://"http://www.faa.gov/education_research/testing/airmen/test_guides/media/faa-g-8082-17b.pdf") What materials are best to start studying? Any help will be greatly appreciated! The Airplane Flying Handbook (http://"http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aircraft/airplane_handbook/") & Airmans Information Manual (http://"http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/air_traffic/publications/atpubs/aim/") are great places to start. |
