Start my class in summer trying to prepare as much as possible before it starts! The goat
Found this super helpful!!! Gonna share this with my class for sure ty bro!
Btw, Stache Air, who's been blogging airman testing written, oral and practical tips for the past 13 years, has become a full-time DME and is no longer able to create content (conflict of interest w/ the FAA) based on the ACS codes or A&P topics in general as of 2 days ago.
Not sure if you wanna incorporate that into your video content creation mix one day but the days of Stache Air as the go-to source of educational info for aspiring A&Ps are done :(
That’s sucks Stache Air helped me with my powerplant
Good for stache air and also tuff for the students getting ready to test. He posted allot of super helpful information
Hey Bryce! I've been watching all your testing videos since I finished my AMT program back in December, just wanted to let you know I passed my O&P's last week and I'm officially a licensed A&P mechanic!! Passed all three knowledge tests as well as my O&Ps on the first try, thanks for all the advice!
Congratulations 🎊. I'm glad I was helpful.
I have my General/Airframe O&P on June17th trying to prepare as throughly as I can!
how do i study for the practical's for powerplant. I've passed my general and airframe but struggled with the practical portion.
Look over the ACS practical projects. Anything you feel you need help on, ask your instructors about, or if you are going the practical experience route, you could also consider a crash course
Where can I look up codes for airframe orals if you fail
The DME should write them on the 8610 then it's the same as the writtens look them up in the ACS standard
I take general and power plant tomorrow pray for me
👍
I didn’t pass 😢
It happens don't be discouraged because now you know exactly what you need to study to retest. And do you want to know a secret I failed the first time around too. Now I'm an IA and I teach it. Stay motivated brotha
Thank Bryce that helps a lot imma keep pursing it
@@Mike-qc4huhi. Where did you prepare from? Asa or Gleim? Can you tell more about the tests? Were the questions mostly from the test guides or not from them?
About the weird random questions, maybe they are non-graded questions that are being developed and tried out for potentially being put on future tests. This is done a lot on FCC amateur radio tests.
I wish they weren't graded. They do affect the final score, unfortunately. Thank you for your comment. You reminded me to call my buddy, who is a ham radio enthusiast.
Just passed my A… O&P April 5th 2024. From my experience the O&P was easier than the written test. You will be asked around 20 Questions for Gen & 20 for Airframe . While you do your practicals (9 for general, 11 for airframe) . Your DME will ask you 2 questions per practical on the actual practical you’re doing. For example I had to clean a de-icing boot and the question was what can you use to install a di-icing boot . So another 40 questions. There will absolutely be a random question that you never heard or studied in your life. But you can get a few wrong. I hope this helps 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey what did you use to study for your orals for general and airframe?
It literally says on the PSI paper whether it was a retake and if its take 1 or 4 etc
Hi Bryce i just passed my power plant o&p and i am fully certified now!
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 👏
@@brycebuildsit thanks man your videos helped me a lot!
Question... if i pass my General & Airframe written then orals and practical and i become an Airframe mechanic and for some reason i wait 2 years and my writtens expire do i have to retake them all or just powerplant written,orals and practicals?
You already have the A so you would just have to take the power plant test
Can i take the orals separate from the practicals
No
Hello, I am from Mexico City. I am about to start my written test, but I have a question. Can I start only with the general test?
Yes, but once you take the general written you only have 2 years to finish the rest of the.
Hi i pass my general writing oral and practical and I also pass my writing for the airframe and I pass the oral expect the practical so my question is my general writing expired. Do I have to retake only the writing or oral and practical too ?
You just need to retake the written.
@@brycebuildsit thanks a lot
@@brycebuildsit I am using Gleim is that a good resource for my general writing test ?
I think so, many people in the discord use it and have had good luck
Great vid I unfortunately failed my airframe O&Ps but I’m retaking them tmrw. U made it clear on the oral portion about the questions getting reasked. However what about the practical how is it when you retake it?
You will have to re-do the same tasks. And any tasks you didn't finish
How did you do? I failed my airframe O&P today. Been out of school for 3 years. So I’m rusty on everything.
Hello, my name is Carlos, I am from Mexico City. I am about to start my written test, but I have a question. Can I start only with the general test?
Yes, you will have 2 years to finish after you take that test. Otherwise you will have to take it again.
