    It is a great addition to my library. It is concise on explanations and has great questions. It it is the kind of book that you can have with you all the time and have a look at it when bored :)

Just the Best in Knowledge Prep.

  • By Jim from Fernandina Beach FL USA on Monday, August 10, 2020
  • Pros: Well worth the money!
  • Review: Used Gleim's Sport Pilot prep. 8 yrs. ago and scored an 88. Not perfect, but good enough and I was happy. Just finished Private Pilot Prep. and study material was just as well presented and useful. Good quality printing and heavy paper which helped greatly with reading sectionals and performance graphs.

Not enough detailed information

  • By Duane from Houston TX USA on Wednesday, January 08, 2020
  • Pros: Lots of review questions
  • Review: There is very skimpy details in the narrative. But the multiple questions seem to open some doors of understanding. This book is a good review book for someone that has already taken other flying instructions from another source. I recommend this as a great review source, not a great basic training book.

  • Monday, December 31, 2018

    Q: Do you have the helicopter study guide and not the airplane ...

    A: The ASA Private Pilot Test Prep Book will cover helicopter as well as a number of other aircraft types. 

  • Tuesday, March 03, 2015

    Q: Which book do I need to purchase to have the example/exhibits for the test?

    A: It sounds like what you are looking for is the FAA Airman Knowlege Testing Supplement - Sport, Private, & Recreational Pilot.  This is the same book issued during the FAA Knowledge Exams at the computer testing centers. These "figures books" are exactly as released by the FAA, with all charts reproduced in full color.

  • Friday, August 19, 2011

    Q: Do you sell a Private Pilot Glider specific written test specific sample tests?

    A: If you need the Private Pilot Glider Rating, you would want to get the ASA Private Pilot Test Prep Book.  The Gleim book only covers the airplane rating.  The ASA book covers airplane, helicopter, gyroplane, glider, free balloon and airship.

  • Monday, November 23, 2009

    Q: After studying the material, taking the quizes and the final test and passing them, what do I need to present to the FAA testing center to be able to test. There used to be a certificate you sent off to Gleim; is that still in the materials?

    A: With the test guide, you will need to get a local CFI to sign-off before you to take the knowledge exam with the FAA.  However, with the private pilot test prep software, you can do it yourself.  After installing the software, click the "Performance" menu and then "Instructor Sign-Off Forms".  If you have successfully answered all of the questions at least once, select Print from the sign-off screen's toolbar to print the form. Take the sign-off to your computer test site as authorization to take your test. It does NOT have to be signed by Dr. Gleim or anyone else.
