Part 1 FAA Private Pilot Ground School (Part 61) |
The first part of this five-part series goes over an introduction to flight training (including tips on picking a flight school from a 15-year flight school executive), aircraft structure, aircraft systems, and flight instruments. I included links to the free FAA publications as well as over 100 practice questions. This course follows the guidance of the Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) under Part 61. You should definitely start flight training while taking this course.
Over 150 hours went into preparing the slides, and recording/editing this course, I hope you will find it valuable and helpful towards your training.

- Part 2: Basic Aerodynamics, Aerodynamic Forces, Weight & Balance, Performance and Limitations.
