Does the book cover it all for the FAA exam?

[CaptainRon]

I'm in IFS right now and I've been studying using this book:http://www.mypilotstore.com/mypilotstore/sep/2250

Somebody told me this book does not cover all possible questions that could show up on the FAA test.

Is he right about that? I had assumed Jeppesen would whip together a good book, covering all possible questions.

Thanks.

Use the Gleim study guide or software...both have the full bank of questions you'd see on the respective test you're taking.

Yes, that 900 question book has every exam question encountered. You could also go to sportys and do an online exam, I personally felt it was better.

I have the other book too, the one with all 989 questions in it. I'm looking at it and it has questions about balloons, helicopters, and gliders that are not in the book from the link above.

So to be more specific, my question is will the FAA exam include any of these balloon, glider, and helo questions?

The FAA Private exam does not include balloon, glider, or helo, unless you are trying to get one of those ratings.

Got it. Thanks guys.

With regard to FR&R, there will be glider/balloon/helo questions on the FAA exam.

I used this site for studying when I took the FAA exam for my PPL. I thought it was the best tool I used. IFS takes the same exam right?

If you are doding the CATS testing, it will be the same as your PPL. If you already have the PPL, why are you in IFS?

I'm in primary, not IFS. I found that website helpful so I was just putting the gouge out there.

I got my PPL in NJ in 2006.
