CFII Jason Miller and Alaska pilot Deon Mitton will present:
The importance of training beyond the ACS. Learning the edges of the envelope is how Alaska pilots “graduate” their first season and continue to operate safely in a very challenging environment. This talk is about what we can learn from that approach and what skills we can practice to improve here in the lower 48.
Ground School is a brand-new flight training app that will help you acquire the knowledge you need to be a better and safer pilot. With qualified instruction from one of the most respected CFIs on the flight line, you’ll be confident, ready and prepared for your FAA written exam and your next checkride.
It's easy to keep track of progress and currency with an intuitive modern design and interface.
After you complete a test attempt you will see which questions you answered incorrectly and now have the ability to see the answer explanation along with a source reference.
Knowledge Recall is a form of spaced repetition
Through our Knowledge Recall feature the app will measure your knowledge decay over time and prompt you to take a short quiz as your currency lapses.
All Skills videos are filmed from the design eye height of the airplane.
Our custom made filming setup uses 4 cameras mounted at the design eye height of the airplane. In an age where so many training videos show cameras mounted on the tail and other strange exterior shots, we show pilots exactly where to look to learn the sight pictures they need to succeed. We call this Pilot Perspective™. Your instructor will be impressed.
The Pilot Proficiency dashboard is designed to distill all your interactions with the app into a single screen showing your strong and weak areas.
Your proficiency is measured across three metrics: Knowledge, Skill, and Risk. These are the same measurements the FAA uses during checkrides to measure pilot proficiency. Ground School aims to assess your checkride readiness across all three metrics.
Cross-reference lesson content and question answer explanations to included source FAA reference texts to deepen your knowledge.
The structure is great, the content is better. The practice tests are awesome.
I really enjoy the break out of study material and how each chapter covers a broad topic with many sub topics. It makes it easy for me to follow and retain the information.
The flight demonstration videos are super helpful too. I try to chair fly each part of my instruction flights before going up and the videos help add more context and there are great tips and tricks.
There’s a whole section that covers scenarios with YouTube pilots which has a lot of great information.
Final you have access to the entire library of publications in one easy to navigate place.
Great product! Keep up the awesome work.

Prior to finding this app, I went through the full Sporty’s online ground school as well as the full King’s ground school program. This is my favorite due to the app design and interface & learning style (short videos, excerpts from FAA documentation, photos, diagrams, quizzes with good explanations, learning objectives, and follow up).
The app is constantly being updated and improved, and although I passed my knowledge test six months ago (thanks to this app), I’ve been using the app to stay fresh and continue studying. There’s a proficiency section that motivates me to study certain areas, and I use the resource section to make sure that I’m reviewing all FAA documentation.
I like to use the app prior to going out to fly as my personal CFI session, for keeping technique and professionalism sharp.
I’ve recommended this app to friends going through PPL and they love it as well. Thank you Jason and team for making such a great app!

Jason’s approach to teaching is so much more than just obtaining your private pilot certificate, he goes above and beyond to bring an added level of safety to general aviation and presents the information in an easy to understand manner. I can hands down say I would rate Jason as good as Rob Reider from the old Sporty’s Learn to Fly videos but with a more modern style! I’ve learned new things from Jason that a half a dozen previous instructors didn’t impart on me. Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed!

I researched several options for Ground School, and was glad I picked this one! Jason does a great job of explaining things clearly, and I like the constant change between videos and slides and charts. It definitely keeps your attention better than straight videos (or just reading the books).
The quiz questions were super helpful. And now that I’ve been on the app longer, the knowledge recall definitely keeps you an honest pilot!
