Oral Exam Guide

The oral and practical exams are the last steps for certification of an Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT). The AMT Oral & Practical Exam Guide by industry expert Dale Crane (edited by Raymond E. Thompson) will prepare the reader for the General, Airframe, and Powerplant exams. This book includes information on the certification process, typical projects and required skill levels, and practical knowledge requirements in a question-and-answer format, with references defined for further study. When taking an FAA Knowledge Exam, you merely verify your knowledge of facts-you interface with a computer and there is no personal involvement. The AMT oral and practical tests are different: you work one-on-one with an experienced mechanic evaluator who is able to not only judge your mechanical skills, but observe how you think and see the way you solve problems. The examiner determines whether or not you possess the knowledge and skill level needed as an entry-level technician, as defined by the FAA Practical Test Standards (PTS). The AMT Oral & Practical Exam Guide will help you prepare for this significant step towards your new career as an AMT.

Newly revised to reflect the latest procedural and regulatory changes mandated by the FAA, this "Guide to the Flight Review" informs both pilots and flight instructors about the exam, and lists questions with succinct answers that will help them pass their flight review. It is also useful for FAA-designated examiners for keeping track of how to conduct a flight review, and the steps and requirements laid out by the FAA. Answering the most commonly asked questions - many of them excerpted from the Oral Exam Guide Series by Mike Hayes - the guide also clarifies the requirements of the written and oral flight-review portions. Lists of study materials to refer to for test preparation are included. Also includes regulations and advisory material from the FAA and an "FR checklist" to help pilots stay organized. Staying organized and practicing the question-and-answers ahead of time are key to staying focused on test day and passing the flight review and checkride.
