commercial checkride study guide: Private Pilot Checkride Virgil Royer, 2023 This is not the typical question-answer-question-answer text-only format. This book is often referred to as the ‘Cliffs Notes’ for the private pilot checkride. This is the prep and study guide that will help you ace your checkride! Most material is presented in easy-to-flashcard and memorize charts, diagrams and mnemonics. The book begins by outlining the steps to take prior to your checkride under the latest ACS including hours, training, required logbook endorsements, and then explains the rest of the exam procedure which concludes with the debriefing. The study guide then goes into greater detail for each anticipated area of the checkride including: 1. checklists to memorize (and those not to memorize); 2. airspace and VFR minimums; 3. weather (reports, clouds, winds aloft, pressure systems, thunderstorms, the GFA weather chart website, types of fog, etc.), 4. navigation, including: types of navigation, lost procedures, VOR navigation, useful websites, NOTAMs, step-by-step instructions for completing a full navigation log, etc.); 5. safety & wellness (common in-flight sicknesses, rules for scuba divers, in-depth explanation of sensory illusions, etc.); 6. airport signs (including marshaling signals and a complete color runway diagram, etc.); 7. documents & inspections (learn an easier way to remember “TOMATOFLAMES”); 8. performance (including an explanation of leaning, and detonation vs. pre-ignition); 9. communications (towered airports, airspace transitions, calling FSS from an RCO, Class C procedure, activating flight plans, requesting flight following, etc.); 10. passenger briefing (including a sample briefing for your knee board); 11. maneuvers, takeoffs & landings (including a one-page maneuver reference card, plus a one-page list of all ACS maneuvers, takeoffs, landings, etc. which should be used during your final 3 hours of exam training with your CFI); 12. special emphasis areas (although they are now incorporated into the ACS, you should still be familiar with these areas because they are inherently tested throughout the exam) There is also a quick-reference flow chart for the risk management expectations; 13. the “other things to study” chapter is chock-full of the miscellaneous areas that you will be expected to know such as airspeeds, altitudes, stall/spin awareness & recovery, carb icing, slips, lapse rates, V-speeds, unusual attitude recovery, SVFR, pitotstatic system, left-turn tendencies, a detailed engine diagram with fourteen questions you should be able to answer, and much more; 14. select FAR/AIM summaries (the select rules you should be most familiar with); 15. three full-color sectional chart quizzes (with answer keys); 16. a chapter on “going the extra mile” and finally a detailed list of what should (probably) be in your flight bag. You will notice that this book is not hundreds of pages, nor is it priced as high as other books on this topic. The length is purposefully limited because you cannot effectively study and memorize hundreds of pages prior to your practical test. In addition, the size is such that you can easily take it with you wherever you go and study when time permits. -- Amazon.com. |

commercial checkride study guide: Private Pilot Airman Certification Standards - Airplane Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), 2016-09-25 The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has published the Private Pilot - Airplane Airman Certification Standards (ACS) document to communicate the aeronautical knowledge, risk management, and flight proficiency standards for the private pilot certification in the airplane category, single-engine land and sea; and multiengine land and sea classes. This ACS incorporates and supersedes the previous Private Pilot Practical Test Standards for Airplane, FAA-S-8081-14. The FAA views the ACS as the foundation of its transition to a more integrated and systematic approach to airman certification. The ACS is part of the safety management system (SMS) framework that the FAA uses to mitigate risks associated with airman certification training and testing. Specifically, the ACS, associated guidance, and test question components of the airman certification system are constructed around the four functional components of an SMS: Safety Policy that defines and describes aeronautical knowledge, flight proficiency, and risk management as integrated components of the airman certification system; Safety Risk Management processes through which internal and external stakeholders identify and evaluate regulatory changes, safety recommendations and other factors that require modification of airman testing and training materials; Safety Assurance processes to ensure the prompt and appropriate incorporation of changes arising from new regulations and safety recommendations; and Safety Promotion in the form of ongoing engagement with both external stakeholders (e.g., the aviation training industry) and FAA policy divisions. The FAA has developed this ACS and its associated guidance in collaboration with a diverse group of aviation training experts. The goal is to drive a systematic approach to all components of the airman certification system, including knowledge test question development and conduct of the practical test. The FAA acknowledges and appreciates the many hours that these aviation experts have contributed toward this goal. This level of collaboration, a hallmark of a robust safety culture, strengthens and enhances aviation safety at every level of the airman certification system. |
commercial checkride study guide: Private Pilot Handbook Proactive Aviation, 2020-05-31 The purpose of this book is to provide new pilots with a source of readily available information and act as a resource for instructors to transfer knowledge and visualize flight maneuvers. The information is intended to be found quickly when needed. Private Pilot Handbook is a reference book and has been developed specifically for those interested in acquiring or in need of a flight review for a Private Pilot License (PPL). Private Pilot Handbook covers a range of subject matters associated with Private Pilot Airman Certification Standards (ACS), Maneuvers, Oral/Written/Practical Exam Guide, VFR Communication Practices, ATC, and Comprehensive Private Pilot Glossary. Private Pilots must become familiar with continuously changing regulations and procedures. The Private Pilot Handbook is designed for student pilots, ground instructors, flight instructors, and others with a special interest in aviation. The main topics in private pilot training are briefly explained on a need-to-know basis, while topics students frequently have the most difficulty in are given in detail. Every pilot should be familiar with and use the current FAR-AIM, PilotOperation Handbook (POH), and Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM). The main sources used in the preparation of the Private Pilot Handbook are the aviation publications stated in the Airmen Certification Standards (ACS) in Figure 2B. For testing guidance, underlined text and notes cover questions asked in the written and practice exams. |

commercial checkride study guide: Pilot Medical Handbook Federal Aviation Administration, Civil Aviation Medical Institute, 2009 Indispensable for pilots and other aviation workers, this comprehensive guide contains the authoritative word on pilot health and flight safety. Being a safe pilot involves more than checking the weather, filing a flight plan, and performing a preflight inspection. It also requires that pilots assess their physical and mental health and evaluate a slew of situational factors. This valuable reference contains detailed FAA-approved recommendations for determining when a flight is a “no-go” and details the variables that go into such a weighty decision—including medications, fatigue, trapped gases, vision impediments, spatial disorientation, hypoxia, and carbon monoxide. Pilots will learn how to determine their personal minimums in flying, evaluate the benefits of LASIK surgery, and confidently handle in-air situations that could quickly become emergencies, such as smoke in the cabin and altitude-induced decompression sickness. |
