Aircraft General Knowledge PPL(A) Overview

The course teaches the systems needed to fly an aircraft efficiently and safely, whilst exercising proper care of the airframe.

The module touches on the aerodynamic aspects taught in Principles of Flight. But this time students learn more on how aircraft are put together, and how the mechanical & electrical parts work. For example, you’ll learn how an altimeter works (in principle), which gives you a clearer idea of how variables such as changing air pressure and temperature can affect its accuracy.

 

Examinations

The PPL Aircraft General Knowledge examination has 16 multiple choice questions which must be answered within a 35 minute time limit. The minimum pass mark is 75%.
