Nov 1 - Better than time-waster classes We received an interesting bit of feedback today from a user ...
I just took the CFI-A knowledge exam and failed after attending a 3 day exam prep course at A******* F***** flight academy in Dallas Texas. I then used your iPhone app to prepare for the same test and found it to be more up to date and I passed with ease. Thanks, guys!
While nobody can always claim to have 100% of the questions 100% of the time, the reality is that we work hard to try to keep atop FAA changes in ways that 'ordinary' course instructors can't necessarily. While there is always benefit to studying from a variety of sources, when it comes to actual test preparation, this is best done with the interactive, do-it-at-your-own-pace style that our software and apps allow. Also, remember that classroom instruction is slow due to the fact that lecturing is slow and inefficient. For any given hour, you can learn far more by reading our detailed explanations and using our materials to actually work out problems rather than listening to a lecturer drone on at his/her pace (not yours) on topics that he/she happens to find challenging.
Oct 28 - Are you prepared? Are you prepared for any in-flight situation? How about the one shown in this video?. What could the pilot of this Air France 707 have done differently? Perhaps a more thorough weather briefing? Have a nice week.
Hi! I'm a student pilot and I've purchased your [GroundSchool FAA written test prep] software, I love it for its simplicity, practicality, and ease of use... Free life time updates are unbeatable. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the good words, CS! We're grateful that we could play even a small role in your future aviation success.
The test prep software was REALLY great in getting ready for the test. It was good to go into the CATS Simulation Mode so I could practice the tests how it would really look when I took the test at my local CATS facility. I scored a 98% and was diappointed, because the software covered both questions I missed. The confidence I had going into the actual test made it more of an issue of how high I would score and less of an issue of if I would pass. The software was well worth the price and I wouldn't hesitate to use it again for another test in my future.

A nice little thank you note in our inbox today from CR here who took his FAA Flight Engineer Written test after studying with our GroundSchool software. The FE written is great to have even if you never fly as a flight engineer, as many airlines will look at it as extra evidence of your preparedness.
I consider the Dauntless FAA Test Prep invaluable! I'm 64, and have been retired for nine years and haven't taken any test in over ten years. I think that says a lot for your software, thank you!!
Oct 18 - Easy conversion to Safelog from a competitor's product
I a very pleased with the product and easily imported my log data from the [competitor] logbook software. The combination of desktop and iPhone works perfectly...
