The written is the easy part

Nearly nine Private Pilot written tests in ten are passed. About one Private Pilot checkride in four is not (75.1% approved in 2025, FAA airmen statistics). The difference is the oral: your examiner asks you to explain, not to pick a letter.

The written (PAR)
Know why the answer is right. The sectional, the Chart Supplement and the performance charts stop being guesswork.
The oral
Airspace, weather, systems, regulations, the way an examiner asks about them. With the answers you can say out loud.
The flight
Maneuvers with their ACS tolerances, stalls, spins awareness, emergencies, so you know what is being scored.
Your cross-country
One real route planned through the volumes, from the sectional to the weight and balance.

Twelve volumes, the whole Private Pilot ACS

Built on the Private Pilot Airplane ACS (FAA-S-ACS-6C). Each page carries its ACS code, so you always know what you are studying for.

Questions

What exactly do I get?

All 12 volumes (479 pages) in your private online library: eleven subject volumes and a Checkride Guide. You read them on your phone, tablet or laptop, with zoom on every chart. They are not a PDF download.

Is this a question bank?

No. It's the theory, organized by the ACS. Use it next to your question bank: the bank drills the format, the notes explain the answers, and the answers are what your examiner wants to hear at the oral.

Is it up to date with the ACS?

Yes. It follows the Private Pilot Airplane ACS (FAA-S-ACS-6C) and each page carries its ACS code. Corrections and updates land in your library for free.

Can I see pages before I buy?

Yes. The pages at the top of this page are real pages from the notes, as you get them. Tap one to open it full screen.

What if I have a problem?

Email piloteautrement@gmail.com, a pilot answers. Our refund policy explains your rights.

What do I pay, and in what currency?

€45,00, once, charged in your local currency at checkout. No subscription.

Is this the European PPL?

No. The European (EASA) edition is a separate product with different rules, exams and units. This one is written for the FAA only.
