ABOUT THE PPL & RT PRACTICAL EXAMS
The CAA PPL & EASA Ground School Examinations are all in multiple-choice format, and are required for the theoretical element of all UK issued licences - NPPL (M), NPPL (A), UK/EASA (PPL (A/G) including Helicopter, Balloons, Motor Gliders etc. They are relatively easy to pass if approached in the correct way, but one of the problems is that they must be completed within a set period of 18-24 months (after which they expire!). However if you run out of time, you simply take the next series again - unlike other schools we make no additional charge should this happen.
For reference - the PPL theory papers and on-line tests consist of:
* 1 Air Law * 2. Operational Procedures * 3 Meteorology * 4 Flight Performance and Planning
* 5 Human Performance and Limitations * 6 Aircraft General Knowledge *7 Principles of Flight *8 Navigation *9 Communications - PPL & RT and * 10 Radio Telephony (practical).

For Microlight Pilots - Sign up for our BMAA approved course which excludes the 'Flight Performance and Planning' topic available at reduced cost, but same quality as our other courses. A similar offer is avialable for Helicopter pilots, and others.

HOW WE DO IT
You will be provided with a comprehensive and paced distance-learning package (inc. media and/or apps) for each subject, and an introductory or a personalised exam brush-up session for each paper. It is sensible to complete some recommended preparatory work (at a seminar or at home using our online system) and practice paper(s) before attending our fast track exam revision session. You will complete realistic mock paper(s) - not the usual 'Q&A simplifier' material, which are fully marked with detailed advice and comments. By this stage you will be fully ready to take the actual exam(s).

As teachers, educators, and flight examiners with over 30 years experience, we know what we are doing - come to us and pass first time. No gaps - no short cuts, don't waste time and flying cash on other approaches - we apply the 'Pareto 80/20 principle' - . Don't know what that is - then come and find out!.

One subject at a time taken, or complete everything in just THREE DAYS, check the Sample Programme - it really can be done!

NOTE: Because of the time needed to conduct the RT practical, the final CAA Radio Telephony test must be booked for a separate day. If your knowledge of Radio Telephony is limited you may need to do our full two day course - see R/T Details here.

Let us know if you intend doing your PPL flying training in the USA, Canada or EU. We can tailor our revision programme so that you are up to pass standard for all the FAA, Transport Canada or other written tests. These are usually computer based, and you can practice the actual computer tests with us before starting any flying training (further details on request)
