This course series is designed to give you the necessary ground knowledge to pass the FAA Private Pilot Airplane (PAR) Knowledge Test in preparation for the Private Pilot license or certificate. I specifically designed this material to be comprehensive and not just an overview. I will go IN DETAIL about each of the knowledge areas and provide explanations to not only pass the test, but also become a proficient pilot. Anybody can pass the test by memorizing the question bank, but that’s NOT what this course is about.
The first part of this five-part series goes over an introduction to flight training (including tips on picking a flight school from a 15-year flight school executive), aircraft structure, aircraft systems, and flight instruments. I included links to the free FAA publications as well as over 100 practice questions. This course follows the guidance of the Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) under Part 61. You should definitely start flight training while taking this course.
Over 150 hours went into preparing the slides, and recording/editing this course, I hope you will find it valuable and helpful towards your training.
The other courses are:
-
Part 2: Basic Aerodynamics, Aerodynamic Forces, Weight & Balance, Performance and Limitations.
-
Part 3: Regulation, Inspections & Documents, Aeromedical Factors, Aeronautical Decision Making.
-
Part 4: Weather Theory, Weather Services, Airport Operations, Radio Communications.
-
Part 5: Airspace, Charts, Navigation, Flight Computer & Cross-country Planning + 2 Bonus Practice FAA Exams.
-
Optional Part 6, available by private message ONLY: Receive a paper written endorsement from the instructor to take the FAA test (requires enrollment in all 5 parts + proof that you are proficient with the knowledge).
Who this course is for:
- Student pilots working towards an FAA Private Pilot certificate
- Aviation enthusiasts interested in furthering their knowledge
- Students enrolled in a Part 141 program looking for additional resources and alternate explanations
- “Rusty” pilots who are looking to get back into aviation
- Foreign students looking to get informed on US regulation

Coming from someone who has no aviation background and is looking to be a pilot I found the instruction to be really digestible. The instructor is quite easy on the eyes as well, made the course a little bit more interesting.
