The easiest and most cost effective way to study for the Sport Pilot written test is to purchase a ground school package such as available from Dauntless http://www.dauntless- soft.com/products/groundschool/ or from Gleim Sport Pilot Kit with Online Ground School The Dauntless ground school is an application for PC or Ipad - the sport pilot package is less than $50 and includes the WSC questions so is highly recommended for trike students. The Gleim kit has more basic on-line training as compared to Daunltess and does not have the WSC questions but includes:- • Flight Bag • Flight Computer • FAR/AIM • FAA Test Prep Online-Sport Pilot • Logbook • On-line Communication Course • Gleim On-line Ground School for Sport Pilots • Sport Pilot Handbook • Plotter • Sport Pilot Flight Manoeuvres and Practical Test Prep book • Sport Pilot FAA Knowledge Test Book • Sport Pilot Syllabus Book • Sport Pilot Training Record Book Not included in either and required for Weight Shift Control is the FAA publication FAA-H-8083-5 - Weight Shift Control Flying Handbook - this is a free PDF download but can also be bought on-line. If buying on-line be sure to get the full size color copy, you’ll see cheaper versions but they can be black and white and a waste of money - recommend the pilot store It also important to read and understand your aircraft operating manual - the manuals are normally available on-line Other items can also be purchased at pilot stores such as Sporty’s Pilot Shop or mypilotstore.com Also not in the Gleim package is a VFR (Visual Flight Rules) Sectional Chart - the chart is required for cross country flying and provides major ground reference features, airspace, airports and ground elevations - Training is from Jackson County Airport which is on the Atlanta Chart If you have a tablet or smart phone Sectional Charts and accompanying flight planning software can be downloaded from Garman or Foreflight. Both offer a free trial download after that a yearly subscription is required. There is also a free application AVARE for Android which works quite well By planning trial cross countries the Apps are a fun way to learn the about Sectional Charts Airspace, Airports and cross country planning. You should also register (it’s free!) with the FAA web site https://www.1800wxbrief.com it contains a wealth of information required for safe flying including:- Weather, Notams, Airport information, Briefings and allows flight plans to be filed and activated/closed with Flight Services.
