About this app

Are you a student HELICOPTER pilot or would you like to become a Private or Commercial Helicopter Pilot? RideReady will help make you confident and ready for your FAA HELICOPTER Practical Test / Checkride (that combination of flight test and oral quizzing when you will have to go through to receive your Private Pilot and/or Commercial Pilot certificate) and allow you to impress the examiner with your knowledge of relevant knowledge areas as per the Practical Test Standards and current FAA practices and recommendations.

RideReady is fully compatible with FAA ACS (Airman Certification Standards) checkrides and our editorial team will work to keep it up to date with ACS as ACS further evolves.

This app will prepare you for BOTH your FAA Private Pilot Helicopter and Commercial Pilot Helicopter practical tests. Topics include: Helicopter Aerodynamics, weather, charts, maneuvers, regulations, systems, and much more.


RideReady features more questions than oral exam prep booklets thus helping you be more prepared for a wide variety of realistic questions. Additionally, RideReady's content is also more illustrated and our explanations more detailed to really help you understand the material.

Our RideReady app can offer you speed, power, availability, and flexibility that no book or DVD can. For example, you can tell RideReady which aircraft you fly (from a list of common training aircraft) and RideReady will ask you questions on its systems and operations - just like a real examiner will. Remember: while books are out of date from the moment they're printed, updates are FREE FOR LIFE, meaning that you can get the most up to date quickly and easily through the built-in update mechanism.

Please note that after downloading this app, the app will need to check for updated data from our servers.

RideReady is the smart pilot's secret to checkride success!

Features:

* Realistic Checkride Questions - Hundreds upon hundreds of realistic memory, analysis, and scenario type questions taken from practical test exit interviews, key FAA documents, and the combined experience of our editorial team of pilot examiners and flight instructors.
* Unlimited Study and Practice - At your own pace, on your own schedule
* Free Lifetime Updates. Get acquainted with the material weeks or months before your checkride, study hard in the days leading up to it, and then brush up years afterwards.
* Hundreds of Charts and Figures - Illustrate key points and help you learn
* Helicopter-specific information - Includes questions specific to the following common training helicopters: Robinson R22, Robinson R44, Schwizer S300C, Schwizer S300 CB/CBi.
* Current and valid for right now - As soon as you purchase and install this app, use the built-in update feature to get the latest and greatest content that we offer in mere moments. We regularly update the content to keep up with changes in practical test standards, FAA emphasis areas, and aviation technology.
* Thousands of Success Stories - Every year, thousands of pilots use RideReady to learn or brush up the material to make them confident and ready to pass their FAA checkrides. We invite you to be next!

Make sure you are looking at the right app for you!

* This is FAA Practical Test (checkride oral exam) preparation for HELICOPTER PILOTS.
* This is NOT FAA written (knowledge) test preparation. If you want FAA written (knowledge) test preparation, check out our GroundSchool FAA line of products. Many pilots buy both RideReady and our GroundSchool-FAA apps as they work well together.
* Again, this title is for HELICOPTER PILOTS ONLY. This is NOT preparation materials for airplane, glider, gyroplane, hot air balloon, or other pilots. We have other RideReady titles for different aircraft types, but this one is for HELICOPTER PILOTS ONLY as it contains much information particular to helicopter / rotary-wing operations.

Thank you again for checking out RideReady!

We will be happy to consider any feature requests made to us via our online helpdesk. However, as it now stands, 1% or less of qs involve rotor direction, and 99%+ of helis in the US go the same way Our prep in this respects acts just as FAA literature, images, and tests do and all competitors materials do. Your 'review' is ridiculously unfair.

Great program and somewhat helpful but you're essentially paying $35 for flashcards... best bet is to just study the PTS. If I could go back I wouldn't pay the money for this. Would be worth it if it were $3 or so.

The PTS (and its current ACS incarnation) simply outline what needs to be studied. They don't actually provide you any info. "Study the PTS" as you wrote really makes no sense. Our app includes actual checkride questions collected and edited by professional instructors and DPEs and is the most comprehensive heli checkride prep available anywhere.
