Checkride flashcards for the private pilot, instrument rating, commercial, and CFI oral exam — ACS-aligned, one question per card, with FAR/AIM references on every answer.
Study the way you'll be tested.
Every deck mirrors the structure of a real oral exam — organized cards, one question at a time, and the regulation behind every answer.
Organized by rating
Decks for Private Pilot and Instrument Rating are ready today, tagged Knowledge, Risk Management, or Skills at a glance.
Searchable by ACS code
Jump straight to a task, like PA.I.A.K1, or filter by Preparation, Procedures, and Airport Ops.
One question per card
No walls of text. Read the question the way an examiner would ask it, then tap Answer when you're ready.
FAR/AIM on every card
Each answer cites its source — 14 CFR, the AIM, or the PHAK — so you can go straight to the regulation.
Four decks, one goal.
Checkride flashcards for every stage of your flying career, from your first oral exam to your CFI initial.
Private Pilot
Foundational knowledge covering aerodynamics, weather, and basic regulations.
- VFR weather minimums
- Aircraft systems 101
- Airspace classifications
Instrument
Advanced IFR procedures for flying in the soup, with focus on approaches and glass cockpits.

Commercial
Deck in progress — professional standards, complex systems, and privilege regulations.
CFI
Coming soon — fundamentals of instructing, endorsements, and logbook rules.
Built to satisfy an examiner, not just a quiz.
Every design choice is aimed at the same thing: knowing the answer before they ask.
ACS-aligned decks
Every card is tagged to its Airman Certification Standards task code and type, so you can see exactly where you stand before test day.
FAR/AIM references
Answers cite the regulation or handbook section they come from, so you're studying the source, not someone's paraphrase of it.
