Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) airman knowledge tests are effective instruments for aviation safety and regulation compliance measurement.
Sport Pilot and Flight Instructor with a Sport Pilot Rating Tests are comprehensive because they must test your knowledge in many subject areas. If you are pursuing a Sport Pilot Certificate or added rating, you should review 14 CFR part 61, Section 61.309, “What aeronautical knowledge must I have to apply for a sport pilot certificate?” If you are pursuing a flight instructor with a Sport Pilot Rating Certificate or added 2 rating, you should review 14 CFR part 61, Section 61.407, “What aeronautical knowledge must I have to apply for a flight instructor certificate with a sport pilot rating?”
All test questions are the objective, multiple-choice type. Each question can be answered by the selection of a single response. Each test question is independent of other questions; therefore, a correct response to one does not depend upon, or influence, the correct response to another. The minimum passing score is 70 percent.
