PPL STUDY GUIDE
$27
The FAA written exam and checkride oral test cover a lot of ground.
Most aspiring pilots study from textbooks that are hundreds of pages long, dense with information that isn't organized around how you'll actually be tested.
This guide is different.
I'm Brian — Your Flying Mentor. With 20+ years in aviation and 1,000+ pilots mentored, I built this guide to cut through the noise and give you exactly what you need to know — organized by the ACS the same way the FAA evaluates you.
What's covered inside:
📋 Task A — Pilot Qualifications
Certification requirements, medical certificates, privileges & limitations, BasicMed, currency vs. proficiency
🛩 Task B — Airworthiness Requirements
Required documents, inspections, airworthiness directives, equipment requirements for VFR day and night
🌤 Task C — Weather Information
