Everything You Need to Know to Ace Your ACS Commercial Pilot Checkride What Your "Checkride" Will Be Like Your Practical Test, commonly referred to as your checkride, consists of two parts:
Oral Portion... On the oral portion of your test you will be required to demonstrate your aviation knowledge, including subjects like regulations, aeromedical factors, aircraft systems, meteorology, and airspace. It is during the oral that you will be required to demonstrate your flight planning, including the performance and weight & balance under actual conditions, the effects of the weather on your flight and your navigation and flight log. Flight Portion... On the flight portion of the Commercial Practical Test you will be expected to demonstrate that you are truly ready to be Pilot-in-Command. In addition to demonstrating your piloting proficiency with the required maneuvers, you will be expected to demonstrate good risk management—including situational awareness, collision avoidance, cockpit resource management and the appropriate use of checklists. |

flight training. It will make you more prepared and will probably even shorten the amount of time you'll need to master
each maneuver.)
The earlier you know what's required for your FAA Commercial Practical Test, the more prepared you'll be.
