Product reviews for Sport Pilot Airplane Ground School & Test Prep

If you take this course, you will be rewarded with a passing score on the written exam. Write down everything that is on each lesson, put into a binder, and study. Take all 507 questions from the bank over and over. The 3 exams at the end were cake because of how easy the lessons are to comprehend! I have taken 2 ground schools (classroom setting) from other places and its not even comparable to the straight forward information this course delivers. I took the FAA written exam 2 months after starting the course and passed easily! Don't wait, take this course!!

I got the course for Christmas, completed in about a week. Went through it twice more from January thru May. I also took the sample tests multiple times for practice - including 6 times in the days leading up to the exam.The test went really well and there was no need for the plotter or E-6B. I completed it in about 20 minutes. The only surprise was that 3 of the questions seemed totally new to me; I don't recall them in any portion of the course or practice-exams.

Took the Sport Pilot Written last week - missed one question.  Took my E-6B manual and E-6B electronic calculators - never picked them up.  The only question which might have needed the E-6B was one that said:  Your aircraft uses 3.1 gallons of fuel going 45 mph, to go 28 miles.  How much fuel would it use to go 25 miles?  Answers to choose from were; A. 3 gallonsB. 4 gallonsC. 5 gallonsNo E-6B needed here - even a cave man could figure this one out!

The Sport Pilot practical study course prepared me quite nicely for the FAA knowledge exam -  I think it was a good idea to redo the practice tests again the day before the actual exam.

King Schools was gracious enough to give me access to this online "Airplane" course after the "Powered Parachute" DVD-based course was found to lacking in updates and notable errors.  Instead, just study the FAA's "Powered Parachute Flying Handbook" and do this online course, and you'll be set to go (at least until King gets an online version of the PPC course).

Although I had some minor issues with the online classes, in the end I easily passed the test.  But I took copious notes and studied very hard to memorize things and to understand what was being taught.

It is good if you take very good notes.  I mean stop the video and write down every word and draw everything that has an illustration.  I mean it - good if you do that, if not, you will not pick up everything.  Study your notes carefully, take the practice exams.  Also, the videos go fast so get ready to hit that pause button.  Finally, there is some wrong and missing information.  And the charts could be bigger and clearer.

I enjoyed studying the Sport Pilot online course. Had to go over the air space's and navigation several times to feel comfortable with it, funny thing is I didn't have one navigational question on the exam. They must have know I was ready!

The course  all the information needed to pass the FAA exam with ease. The course was easy to understand and all the information seem to fall into place in the right order.

I would highly recommend KING Schools to any future pilot. I personally used the Sport Pilot Ground School, and it was great! The videos were extremely helpful and full of all the necessary information. Some are a bit cheesy, but that keeps them fun to watch. You still need to put in the effort to study for the test and prepare yourself, but this ground school does its part to prepare you to ace the test.
