Mock oral checkride
The examiner asks. You answer. Then you find out what he was listening for.
Twelve questions from a real checkride, one at a time. You type your answer the way you would say it, and each one comes back marked against the points a DPE expects to hear — with the follow-up question he would have asked next.
A real question, and a real answer being marked
The examiner asks
What documents must you have on board the aircraft and on your person to legally fly today?
You typed
The aircraft needs AROW: airworthiness certificate, registration, operating limitations and weight and balance. I need my pilot certificate and medical.
He would probe this
You left out government-issued photo ID, which must be carried along with your pilot certificate and medical.
He did not hear: Mentions photo ID
“Besides your certificate and medical, what else do you need to have on your person?”
And at the end, the write-up
A DPE does not fail questions — he fails areas of operation, and under 14 CFR 61.43 a retest covers only the areas found deficient. So the twelve answers come back grouped the way FAA-S-ACS-6 groups them, with the study order underneath. That is the page you hand your instructor. Below is the shape of it, from an example sitting:
I.BAirworthiness Requirements
DeficientStudy: AROW, the AV1ATE inspection intervals, MEL vs 91.213, and who may return an aircraft to service.
I.APilot Qualifications
Needs workStudy: 61.23 medical, 61.56 flight review, 61.57 currency, and the documents you personally must carry.
I.ENational Airspace System
Needs workStudy: Class A-G entry and equipment requirements, special use airspace, TFRs.
I.FPerformance and Limitations
SatisfactoryPrints to one page. The competency write-up is normally the part you pay a second fee for.
Marked against the ACS, not vibes
Every question carries the points a DPE expects to hear. That list is what your answer is compared to — nothing else.
It does not hand you the answer first
The model answer appears after you commit to yours. That is the part a study guide cannot do.
Terse is fine
Abbreviations and memory aids are how this material is actually recalled. You are marked on substance, not polish.
Four ratings
Private (25 questions in the bank), Instrument (25), Commercial (25), ATP (25). Sit each one; the paper differs.
A checkride retest costs $175 in examiner fees before you add the aircraft. This is the rehearsal. Your link never expires, and you can sit all four ratings with it.
