    I did the Sporty's Ground School DVD set, studied the ASA Private Pilot Test Prep with the computer generated exams, then did the Aviation Seminars weekend ground school. I took the test Sunday evening immediately after I finished the ground school. Got a 93.

    Got my PPL a few years ago using Sporty's. Was very pleased with it.

    Default Study materials

    Gleim is another software and hard copy material to study for your test. I'm sure there are several programs out there to study and they are most likely very close in content.

    Ask your instructor to see what they like to work with. That way if you have a question they will be able to help you out.

    Hey guy I will get the ASA private pilot prepware. But I have anothe question I already have the King DVD private pilot checkride. I saw that Kings has a Checkride on a CT but is a Sport Pilot checkride shud I buy it just because is on a CT? Or just stay with the one that I have? I am now on the private pilot curriculum.

    Default Prefer Kings

    I bought the Sportys, but anymore I buy the Kings courses. They seem to have a little more detail.

    It's just a personal thing, but I watched part of the King light sport ground school and the Kings' manner and presentation just didn't click with me. OTOH, I really enjoyed the Sportys segments done by Richard Collins.
