IFR Pilot – thats perfect! Now if only I could get explanations like that for all the other things. But, we can’t all be Krista and get near-100% scores

Might pop in the flight school tomorrow or thu and see if they a test computer available, get this done.

To remember the jet stream, think of it this way: When it moves North, it drags warm air from the Gulf of Mexico; when it moves South, it prevents warm Gulf air from traveling North. So, warm = spring = jet stream is north; cold = winter = jet stream is south.

Sounds like you’re in a really good place. I look forward to hearing of your successful official results soon!

Hi Mike

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check it out. Yeah, I used the Gleim software to get started but my daily tests are using the online practice exams on the Sportys website. My Gleim is a little out of date. But I agree with Gleim, got me through both my Private and Instrument exams.

There’s a book I highly recommend: “Everything Explained for the Commercial Pilot”.

It’s a tacky looking book that you’ve probably seen, but were not immediately impressed by. Don’t judge the book by its cover. This book will help you immensely. It lists for $59.95, but you can find it on eBay for less.

It’s like a Cliff’s Notes for flying.

Good luck with the studying.

By the way, are you using Gleim test prep software? It really helps too.

Mike
