Include “Private pilot scenarios” in your message so Jason knows which exercise you are reviewing. Sending a question does not reserve a checkride date.
Use the private pilot scenarios on this page when your examiner assigns one of these exercises. Each scenario has its own purpose and planning details. Open the complete brief before preparing your flight plan, and keep its passenger, baggage, timing, and weather instructions together with your notes.
Do not assume that a destination, departure airport, or loading detail from one exercise applies to another. Follow the instructions on your assigned page, including any departure-airport note. If the examiner provides additional instructions, use those when preparing for the appointment.
Review the FAA’s Airman Certification Standards for your certificate or rating with your instructor. The pilot checkride resource library links to related preparation materials and other scenario categories.
Questions about an assignment can be sent through the form above. Include the scenario code and the specific instruction you want to clarify.
