GroundSchool features ACTUAL
FAA QUESTIONS. Answers and Explanations have been written
by highly experienced flight instructors and professional
pilots. All required charts and figures are included.
By
this point, you're familiar with the format of FAA Knowledge
tests and probably appreciate the benefit of getting
them done sooner rather than later. Our app helps you
do this is a no-nonsense fashion.
Unlike
books and other materials, our app updates itself
using the built-in selt-update feature. You can always get
the latest and greatest available study material from
us at no extra charge.
This
app costs about the same books do, but is
significantly more time efficient. Sure, DVD/Video sets may
look pretty, but most find them inefficient, timewise. Our
app works on YOUR pace at significantly lesser cost.
Flight School, College/University, or FBO?Bulk and Lab/Site site licenses are available.
GroundSchool can be used to prepare for all of the FAA Flight Instructor tests including
the Fundamentals of Instruction**
test
Our GroundSchool - CFI apps will help you prepare for any or all of the following tests:
FIA − Flight Instructor Airplane
FRG − Flight Instructor Rotorcraft Gyroplane
AFA − Flight Instructor Airplane (added rating)
GFA − Flight Instructor Gyroplane (added rating)
FRH − Flight Instructor Rotorcraft Helicopter
BGI − Ground Instructor Basic
HFA − Flight Instructor Helicopter (added rating)
AGI − Ground Instructor Advanced
AFG − Flight Instructor Glider (added rating)
FOI − Fundamentals of Instruction **
FIG − Flight Instructor Glider
MCI − Military Competence - Instructor ***
** FOI Fundamentals of Instruction test prep is included as part of the Flight / Ground Instructor test bank here. As such, most flight / ground instructor candidates should purchase the Flight/Ground Instructor version of GroundSchool as it will contain both the FOI prep and the specific instructor test (such as "Flight Instructor Airplane") that you will need to take. However, some people under some quite specific circumstances (such as certain FAA employees) might need to prep for the FOI only and have no intention of ever taking one of the other flight instructor tests in the future - for you, we have a Fundamentals of Instruction-only version of GroundSchool.

GroundSchool - Flight and Ground Instructor Audio Presentation
In MP3 format for your iPod™ / music player or to burn to CD and listen to in the car and elsewhere.
We believe (and scientific study validates) that the interactive activity of test preparation, when combined with the sort of detailed supplementary and explanatory material that we offer, is an excellent way to thoroughly learn and internalize key aviation information.
We are test prep specialists and the experience of thousands upon thousands of pilots proves that our method works. We do not use test prep as a "hook", as some of our advertising-based competitors do, to sell you expensive but ineffective passive video-based courses and similar products that do little besides waste your time and drain your wallet.
Use our material and study hard - not just the questions and answers, but the reasoning and explanations too, and be on your way, in a highly time and cost efficient way, to knowledge test and aviation success!
The
best way to prepare for your FAA Flight and Ground Instructor (CFI) written test is to download the GroundSchool
app from above. Topics covered in the FAA
Flight and Ground Instructor
test bank include:
This app has a really cool feature. After you complete a study session, you can, choose to report your progress to our TestPrepStatus.com system where you will be able to see charts of your study progress so that you can identity your weak points.
The really cool thing, however, is that you can also invite your instructor (CFI, flight school, mechanic school, mentor, parent, study partner, etc) to log in and monitor your progress. This is neat because now you can prove to your instructor in a concrete way now your study is progressing.
Access to the TestPrepStatus.com system is completely free for you and your instructor! Only GroundSchool has this innovative system.

GroundSchool is designed to help you learn the material and score highly on your test in the most efficient manner possible. Our app represents years of listening to and understanding the needs of pilots and mechanics. The program is designed with the singular goal of helping you learn the material so you can pass your FAA written test with a minimum of time and effort. Sure, there are some study methods that are cheaper (and many far more expensive!)... but only if your time is worth nothing. Our app is fast, efficient, and proven.
Here are a few screenshots from the app:
With our FAA Written Test Prep app, you don't have to worry about having
an out of date version. Our authors work to update the data as FAA question
pools change. Groundschool has a built-in self-update feature that connects
to our servers and makes sure that you have the latest and greatest versions
of the app and data soon after they becomes available.
Additionally, the self-update can be used to install new test
data (such as Instrument Rating on top of Private Pilot) so you can have it
when and where you need it.
"I
Passed the IFR (Airplane) and Flight Instructor Instruments tests in the same afternoon after using your apps!
I think your apps are very good. There was a guy next to me at the CATS testing center that failed after using She**** A**. ... I think the intuitiveness
of your apps is superb. ... Thanks for the help, I'll be using this for my commercial as well!
"
- JT - GroundSchool User.
"I
wanted to express my gratitude for the FAA Ground School Test Prep
app. The features are outstanding with regard to knowledge
reinforcement, cross referencing, concentrating on weak points,
and ease of use. Even if you have one of the other home study courses
you still need this program."
- DM - GroundSchool User.
"I
took my test yesterday, and scored 97%. I hd K***'s DVD set and an A** book too. None of them hit the mark in terms of meeting my needs as much as your app did.
I was able to load the app on my work laptop, and take practice tests everywhere: in airports, in-flight (in scheduled airlines), long meetings. It really helped that I could save my tests, and could
review the questions I got wrong later. Being able to search for questions ... was very valuable in keeping me efficient and focused.
You should all be proud of having created something so useful, so well thought out!

A "test bank" contains
one or more tests. For example, the "Private and Recreational Pilot" test bank will contain the Private
Pilot Airplane, Private Pilot Helicopter, and other tests. You'll be able to see the exact tests in each
of the test banks in the screens to follow. Here
are the available GroundSchool test banks:
For the Professional Pilot of the future! One of our best Value
FAA written test prep packages. This is for those really focused on a career in aviation. This package includes
both the Takeoff and FlightLevel Bundles combined.
For the Professional Pilot of the future who also wants to operate in the dynamic Sport Pilot world! Our Best Value
FAA written test prep package. This is for those really focused on a career in aviation but who also love it enough and want the 'future proofing' security of also getting a
Sport Pilot license(s). This package everything from the Takeoff, Sport Pilot, and FlightLevel Bundles combined.
Complete preparation for the three written / knowledge tests (General, Airframe, and Powerplant) that you'll need to take and pass to get
get an FAA A&P certificate. Includes access to all three A&P test banks. Please note: choosing this is the same as choosing a "pick 3"
bundle above and then selecting the mechanic tests from there.
This is for purchasing the Military Competence test banks (Military Competence Airplane and Helicopter - MCA and MCH and/or Military Competence Instructor (MCI)) only. Purchase this option if you are a military pilot wishing to obtain your FAA civilian commercial pilot and/or flight instructor certificate(s) on the basis of your military experience. See the Military Competence page for full details.
This is for purchasing the prep for the Fundamentals of Instruction (FOI) test only. This is for people who are sure that they need
ONLY the FOI prep. Most flight and ground instructor candidates should NOT get this, but rather the complete CFI test bank that includes all the flight/ground instructor tests plus the FOI.
To be clear: any purchase that includes
automatically includes
at no extra charge, so that if you selected as a title either as a 'single test bank' or part of the pick 3 bundle, you'd get both CFI and FOI and it would
only count as one test bank. This "FOI only" option here is at a lower price for those who know that they will only ever need FOI.
"This app was AMAZING. As a private pilot certificate holder, I needed to add the BGI certificate for work pursuits. With no other preparation or materials, I was able to go through your questions and explanations with ease and efficiency. I spent four days reviewing the practice exams (scoring a maximum of 86% on the practice versions). Since I was in a hurry to obtain the certificate, I decided to attempt the actual exam. Time taken to complete the test was 1:12 and I scored 93%. The actual test questions were identical (or very close) to the questions encountered in your app, and I was incredibly well-prepared.
I will recommend your products to anyone looking to become well prepared for their FAA knowledge exams."

"I
took the test after working with your app and the K***
Schools CFI/FOI course. Your course was the most economical
to use for the practice tests versus K*** Schools. I studied
at a slow pace for 3 months then accelerated the practice and
review one month prior to the written. Your course was great
for getting familiar with the computerized testing scheme that
CATS employs. I scored 99% on my FI/A and 100% on my FOI written
tests. I believe I spent about and hour and a half on the FI/A
test and only 35 minutes on the FOI. I plan on using your app
for any future ratings or certificates. Thank you." - FM

your flight school like this? The Wright Brothers testing

while the photo is genuine, the Wrights were engaging in
some lighthearted fun (1904).
Thousands of pilots and mechanics have used GroundSchool to prepare for their FAA written tests. You can too! Download the app below, or, if you're ready to study without the limitations of the demo version, you can also buy it now.
"I believe that your product is
ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT. I has been a joy to work
with. All the more so due to your very prompt
response to my questions.." - EF
"I was about to order the
[competitor's product] when I noticed
your product. Because it was downloadable, I
could start practicing right away. And, the
price was right. I'm a 64 year old 1000 hour
private pilot with instrument rating
who suddenly decided to get my Commercial
and CFII as a retirement vocation. I don’t learn
as fast as I did 40 years ago. GroundSchool has
been a great learning and practicing tool." -

"I will tell you that I think your
app is a wonderful product and I have
personally recommended it to many students at
[FBO] ground school classes... in fact as a
result of using your program, my wife blew by
the other students in her class! This has been a
tremendous confidence builder for her as she was
somewhat intimidated by the other students (all
male) Kind of fun to watch their faces when she
completes a multiple chapter review in 1/4 of
the time they took. Now, they make comments
during the correction like..." well I had answer
A but [wife's name] has answer B and I'm sure
she has the right answer "
We're having a
great time with your app even I use it to
keep myself fresh... Thanks!" -

Some
Advice about the Instructor Written tests I wish
somebody would have given me:
The
Advanced and Basic Ground Instructor tests use (essentially)
the same questions as the FIA Flight Instructor
Airplane test.
Therefore,
if you're studying for the FIA (or Flight Instructor
Instrument Airplane), it's not a bad idea to take
the AGI or BGI (or IGI) test immediately (as in
5 minutes) after taking your FIA (or IFI) tests.
Yes,
this will cost you an additional testing center
fee, but you'll get the ground instructor ratings
with zero extra study time.
While
the ground instructor ratings may be somewhat
needless for most
flight instructors in terms of instructing, they
do look good on an aviation CV plus they are required
if you ever get the opportunity to upgrade your
flight instructor certificate to Gold Seal status.
