Software Design and Content
When the program is started, you will be shown a listing of twelve oral exam topics, the number of questions for each topic, and the percent of questions you have answered correctly on previous study sessions. You can then select one or more topics for the current study session.
Question Topics
- Principles of Flight
- Airplanes and Engines
- Flight Instruments
- Aircraft Performance
- Weather
- Airport Operations
- Airspace
- Navigation and Cross-Country
- Aeromedical Information
- Federal Aviation Regulations
- Maneuvers and Emergencies
- Aircraft Specific Questions
When a study session is started, all of the questions that have not been answered correctly are shuffled into random order. The program then presents each question one at a time, along with an optional illustration. After you have formulated your answer and click on the "Show Answer" button, a suggested response to the question is shown.
You are prompted to score your answer as Correct or Incorrect. If you score the question as Incorrect, the program will eventually present the question to you again until you score it as Correct. As your study session progresses, the program keeps you informed of the percentage of questions you have scored as Correct by way of a progress bar on the bottom of the screen.
When a study session is ended, the program saves an update of your Student Record as a file to the hard disk. This allows the program to remember the questions you have answered correctly for future study sessions.
