About this app

Are you a student pilot or would you like to become a Private or Professional Pilot? RideReady will help make you confident and ready for your FAA Practical Test / Checkride (that combination of flight test and oral quizzing when you will have to go through to receive your Private 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.

For the FAA Private Pilot Airplane practical test, topics covered include aerodynamics, weather, instrumentation, regulations, aircraft systems, charts and navigation, avionics, emergencies, procedures, flight planning, FAA special emphasis areas, weight and balance, 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 Remember: while books are out of date from the moment they're printed, updates are FREE FOR LIFE, meaning that you can get the most up to date quickly and easily through the built-in update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
* Aircraft-specific information - Includes questions specific to common training aircraft types (just like your examiner will ask) plus the ability to customize values and add your own custom aircraft. Built-in aircraft in this title: Cessna 150, Cessna 152, Cessna 172N/RG/SP, Diamond Katana, Piper Warrior II.
* 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 AIRPLANE 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.

Thank you again for checking out RideReady!

Nexus 7 4.4.4 I really wanted to like this app as I had used the FAA knowledge exam and it helped me a lot... but after selecting the 172SP as my airplane, it would not display the information in the questions as one would expect, not to mention a couple of cases where it just plainly served me the wrong chart (a helicopter chart for VFR mnimums!) Then I tried uninstalling and re-installing, and after checking for updates, it now won't even run at all as it keeps crashing. Re-installing a 3rd time and x-ing fingers! Edit: Nope, no luck... It seems to crash if any aircraft specific topics are selected (workd ok per example with aerodynamics / airspace, but not if aicraft systems is selected) Frustrating experience so far,. It has so much potential if only the app maker would do a better job :s I don't recommend this at all until they get their act together. Too bad there's no 'refund' button. If any of the app developers see this, I'm happy to provide crash logs or something like that

Hello Zouhair - all known issues on this app are now fixed and were within a few hours of your purchase. They were related to an AndroidOS update that had broken things. Please remember that a review is not a place to get tech support - had you brought this to our direct attention to us via our helpdesk, we could have gotten you going faster.
