Product reviews for Private Pilot Practical Test (Checkride) Prep

Overall a good look at what I should expect on the private pilot checkride. My test may be slightly different with flying a glass cockpit trainer that relies on GPS navigation instead of VOR, but very pleased with the series and I am now more confident with finishing my private pilot training.

I am a student pilot and I am fully depended on my instructor to teach me whatever I have to learn. This video shows me what and why I am learning each maneuver. It also shows me what is coming next from my instructor. It shows me the areas that are complicated and I will need to pay attention to those maneuvers when my instructor goes over them. I would have been more benefited if I had bought this video before I started my flying classes.  My advice to new students - watch this first!

I'm a private pilot working on getting current again.  I've always enjoyed John and Martha's instruction technique.

I have dreaded the check ride and exam until now. Watching this course has been a total enjoyment and pleasure. I've gone through it in 5 days and loved every minute of it. This course has built my confidence and given me a comfort level I haven't had before. This week alone I have accomplished two other milestones and its because of the course. I did my first night flight and landings this week and then today did my solo cross country... Wow, I am really thrilled and having a blast. Just texted my instructor and asked if we could fly again tomorrow afternoon and go ahead and set up a check ride soon with the examiner... Totally pleased, excited and fulfilled. This course reminds me of good times with my precious father. Thank you John from my heart and thanks to J. C. too. :)

Not only does this course prepare you for most everything you will see on a checkride, it also serves as a huge confidence boost!
