Written and complete. Opens with the series.
- Take it under test conditions. A clock at two minutes a question, the same pace the real test sets, a flag for anything to come back to, a review screen and a submit you have to confirm. Nothing is revealed until you commit.
- Or study your way. Answers as you go or held to the end, and sessions as short as you like
- Weighted to the current FAA blueprint, so an evening of study buys the most points it can
- A diagnostic that names the chapters and pages to reread tonight
- Filter by knowledge area, chapter or only the questions you got wrong
FlashcardsIn preparation
Built to the same pattern as the Part 107 decks:
- Not just an answer: each card gives the reason behind it
- The FAA rule cited on the card, so you can check the original
- The exact volume, chapter and section to reread, with no hunting
- Spaced repetition: cards you miss come back soonest, ones you know come back least
- Card progress is kept separate from your exam scores, so drilling never dents a practice result
The series opens after a final review against the latest FAA changes. Our launch list is not open yet, so there is nothing to join and we are not taking addresses.
