Private Pilot Checkride Preparation and Study Guide [Royer, Virgil] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Private Pilot Checkride Preparation and Study Guide

Review: The go bible to understand and review for your checkride - I never writes review but Virgil did such a great job putting this together that I had to. I’m the kind of guy that will Buy all kinds of book but never end up finishing reading them because they are either too long, or too boring or too complex. This book is just perfect, it will sum up what you need to know, even add topic that are never briefed on other books such as how to do a correct passenger briefing, which checklist to memorize or not etc. I like the graphic and how it explains every hard concepts to grasp. The book is very short, colorful and will capture your attention. It is a great addition to either learn hard concepts or have a quick review. Defientely a great buy!
Review: A wonderful find and must have for anyone preparing for oral/practical ... - Absolutely spectacular work, worth 10X; no 50X the price! I've been a very slow student pilot and now, well into year three and ~120 hours of training, finally prepping for my checkride. I've spent countless hours reviewing the FAR/AIM, Practical Test standards, watching youtubes of practice oral exams, surfing for handy tips, subscribed to some software based prep. Despite all my preparations, Virgil has put together something (for a paltry ~$4 on Kindle) that surpasses all my study aids. He ferrets out a few gems I thought were truly obscure (wind card, clearing turns to the left) and layers on many more mnemonics than I compiled on my own. As a final bonus, it is totally up to date and discusses the reality of glass panels, mobile apps, and electronic aids in a way few of the older resources do. A wonderful find and must have for anyone preparing for oral/practical ppl.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I was looking for
*by K***M on February 6, 2021*

This is a cliff notes type book that helped me read to tune up for my PPL check ride. It's super complete, super efficient to find data or an answer for the DPE and its small and light. More importantly, the charts and lists and FAR references are so efficient that I used it for the oral part of my test and I plan to keep it in my flight bag on trips. I've seen nothing that works better as a quick reference for flying around the country in a GA aircraft than this book. My CFI was so impressed that she is keeping a copy to recommend to future students.
