Online lessons for the EASA private pilot licence theoretical knowledge exams (EASA, not FAA), for aeroplane and helicopter student pilots. Choose the subjects you need.

The PPL theory subjects

Nine subjects, from air law and meteorology to navigation and aircraft knowledge. We work on the ones you find hardest and link them to what you will meet in the aircraft.

How the lessons work

  1. First conversation. We talk about your licence, your flight school and your exam dates.
  2. Plan. A short plan that puts the weakest subjects first and fits around your work and flying.
  3. Lessons. Online sessions with worked examples, calculations and exam-style questions, one-to-one or in a small group.
  4. Revision. A final review before each exam sitting.

Studying at a flight school?

These lessons complement, and do not replace, the course delivered by your flight school or approved training organisation.

English holding you back?

The material, the exam wording and the radio all use English. We can prepare your English alongside the theory.

Aviation English preparation

Frequently asked questions

Is this a replacement for my flight school's ground school?

No. These lessons complement the theoretical course of your flight school or approved training organisation. They are useful when a subject is not clear, when you are studying on your own, or when your exam date is close.

Which licences do you cover?

Private pilot licence theory (EASA syllabus, not FAA) for aeroplane and helicopter students. For the ATPL theoretical knowledge syllabus, see the ATPL(A) & ATPL(H) page.

How much do the lessons cost and how are they held?

Lessons are live on Zoom with experienced Theoretical Knowledge Instructors and pilots, at €30 per hour for every subject. A free 30-minute introductory lesson is included.

What if my English is not strong?

That is common among student pilots whose first language is not English, because the study material, exam questions and radio communication rely on English. We can combine PPL theory with aviation English preparation.

Do you guarantee exam results?

No. We help you understand the subjects and prepare for the exam, but the result depends on your own study and on the exam itself.
