Private Oral Exam Guide: The Comprehensive Guide to Prepare You for the FAA Oral ExamAviation Supplies & Academics, 1993 - Technology & Engineering Updated to reflect vital FAA regulatory, procedural, and training changes, this indispensable tool prepares private pilots for the "checkride" with an FAA examiner. It answers the most commonly asked questions, clarifies the requirements of the written and oral portions, and presents practice questions from the exam with a reference to the specific information source from where the answer may be derived. A new appendix with a "Practical Test Checklist" written in question-and-answer format--with questions the FAA checkride examiners are most likely to ask and comprehensive, easy-to-remember responses--is also provided. This guide teaches not only what to expect but also how to exhibit subject mastery and confidence when under the examiner's scrutiny. |
