I passed the basic exam fairly easily.. planningon taking the advanced... thinking a about taking the flight reviewer exam too
You won't find the Advanced exam so easy.
I have been around aircraft and aviation for years as well as being a contributing journalist with Naval Aviation News in Washington,DC., and I will say this exam is very tough.
First time I attempted it, I received 74%.
There are technical terms as well as meteorological terms and situations that would hard test any experienced pilot.
There are questions on the Advanced exam that have ZERO to do with the safe and responsible operation of your Phantom.
And there are at least 5 questions on this exam that 90% of people would never know........it would seem these questions are there only to tip the balance against a successful outcome.
A friend of mine with over 35 years of corporate jet time took the test and scored 76%.
The pass mark is 80%.
It's tough.
