The ASA Private Pilot Oral Exam Guide is written to help prepare private pilot student pilots for their oral exams with FAA examiners.

Using a question-and-answer format, the Private Pilot Oral Exam Guide lists the questions most likely to be asked by examiners and provides succinct, ready responses.

Pilots will find the Oral Exam Guide an indispensable tool in both planning for what to expect during the airplane checkride, and mastering the subject matter.

Instructors rate them as excellent preparation for students, as well as preps for Instrument Proficiency Checks (IPCs), aircraft transitions, and as general refresher material.

The Private Pilot Oral Exam Guide is designed for student pilots training for the Private Pilot Certificate. All the subjects a Private Pilot candidate will be tested on during checkrides and review flights are covered. Chapters are dedicated to certificates and documents, weather, determining performance and limitations, airplane systems, cross-country flight planning, night operations, and aeromedical factors.

References for further study are provided throughout the book, and additional study questions conclude each chapter. Answers and explanations were researched using FAA documents (which are identified so readers know where to go for further study) as well as interviewing FAA examiners.

The Private Pilot Oral Exam Guide teaches applicants not only what to expect, but also how to exhibit subject mastery and confidence when under the examiner's scrutiny.

The Private Pilot Oral Exam Guide will identify the candidates strengths, weaknesses, and gaps in their aeronautical knowledge, increasing study efficiency. Soft cover, 208 pages. Revised February 2005.
