FAA Private Pilot Readiness Test

10 questions, balanced across the exam's topics. Answer each one, then submit for your practice readiness estimate and per-topic breakdown. This is a practice estimate — not a prediction or guarantee of your official exam result.

Question 1

Which statement most accurately describes Moment?

A prudent plan considers reserve and uncertainty instead of planning to consume all usable fuel en route. Personal operating limits can be more conservative than legal minima. A loading moment equals weight multiplied by its arm. Landing-distance planning depends on approved conditions and relevant surface and environmental factors.

Question 2

Which statement most accurately describes Coriolis effect?

A cold front marks advancing colder air replacing warmer air. Earth's rotation affects the apparent direction of large-scale moving air. Moist air can cool as it rises along sloping terrain. A METAR reports observed aerodrome weather at a stated time.

Question 3

Which term or topic best matches the following description? A study example distinguishes required two-way Class C communications from simply transmitting without an acknowledgment.

Class C communication requirement Medical qualification check Pro-rata expense limitation Night VFR airplane fuel reserve

Question 4

Fictional ground-school exercise; not for operational flight planning. A leg is 156 NM and groundspeed is 90 kt. How many minutes does the leg take?

104 26/15 450/13 14040

Question 5

Match each description to its most specific topic, in the order shown. I. A training explanation emphasizes angle of attack rather than assuming a single airspeed prevents every stall. II. A conventional tail control changes the pitching moment.

I: Elevator; II: Aerodynamic stall I: Aerodynamic stall; II: Flaps I: Aerodynamic stall; II: Elevator I: Drag; II: Elevator

Question 6

Fictional ground-school exercise; not for operational flight planning. A fictional loading sheet has total weight 1960 lb and total moment 76440 lb-in. What is CG arm in inches using the same datum?

1/39 49 39 74480

Question 7

A student writes the following study note. Which heading is the most precise fit? A warm front marks advancing warmer air replacing colder air.

Dew point spread METAR Warm front Upslope fog

Question 8

Which term or topic best matches the following description? A preflight documentation review distinguishes aircraft records from the pilot's personal credentials.

Airman Certification Standards Current chart suitability Required aircraft documents Requested emergency report

Question 9

Fictional ground-school exercise; not for operational flight planning. A leg is 120 NM and groundspeed is 90 kt. How many minutes does the leg take?

4/3 10800 45 80

Question 10

Which term or topic best matches the following description? The nose moves left or right about the vertical axis.

Induced drag Roll Pitch Yaw
