    Since this video is nearing 1000 views. (thank you all by the way) If anyone has had their checkride and would like to talk about it in the comments you are free to do so. And also if there is anything else others should know going into it.

      I agree I think. Its literally the Pilots Handbook but audio version. I would watch Josh from Free Pilot training and Cyndy Hollman. They actually go in depth with the topic. Also the ACS library will be a good choice too.

      Well youre doing the right thing not needing to pay an instructor for this people Dont realize they can save several thousands by studying at home before flying or doing an online course. But theres also completely free material online especially "free pilot training" on YT.

Good luck with training I have no regrets getting in this!

I watch this other guy who flies in my local area and some other airports allow it. I think ill make a guide on how to prepare for instrument when I finish it, wont be till later this year though.

    Thank you for your video! I did have a question about studying the ACS. I know they give you the codes and a brief summary of what it is. I was curious where you found this info from the codes is it on a FAA website ? Would you have an ACS study guide you’d be willing to share ? Thank you have a good day

    • @kevw172
      @kevw172  7 місяців тому +2

      You can look up the ACS codes anywhere but honestly the ACS document itself is your study guide. Have it with you as a reference on what you need to know with your reference books. Honestly theres nothing in the ACS outside the Pilots handbook, airplane flying handbook the oral exam guide and FARs.

    I was told I cant use foreflight on my Private Pilot check ride, is this not true?

    • @kevw172
      @kevw172  4 місяці тому +1

      Some DPEs dont mind it. But if youre not part of a flight school where there are no set rules on whether you can use an EFB or not, do not use foreflight then. Im part of a program and the chief instructor made it clear to students foreflight can be used as a way to access charts and diagrams.

      Gotcha. Im currently doing the part 141 college program for my R-ATP as well, but for private pilot training I am part 61. I think it's going to switch to Part 141 when I start my instrument training. @@kevw172
