I really like this video because you explain what the right answer is after a wrong one. Other mock oral videos just continue without explaining whether it’s right or wrong and why.
I'm a CFII and have to go through this routinely with students. This was well done. I'm going to include some of this on my next mock oral. I especially appreciated the offscreen presenters comments. Her responses were excellent (clear and concise).
I've watched a lot of these mock oral exams on RUclips, and this is one of the better ones. If the student answers incorrectly, the examiner will say what the correct answer is. This is helpful! It is amazing to me that other channels (e.g., Gold Seal Flight Training) think an hour long video full of incorrect answers in somehow valuable to people.
I feel like this was more confusing than helpful because of all of the guessing. EDIT: after about 1 month of studying and having my check ride in a couple of days, rewatching this video showed me that this guy is extremely prepared. It was more confusing at the beginning of my check ride study. Then it was at the period. The video was edited better than most of the other ones I've seen. Thanks!
This really put me at ease a bit for my oral coming up. Knowing that I don't need to memorize all these things right off the top of my head really helps especially since I know I can find them if I need to.
I am an instrument rated pilot, and just passed my commercial rating. I really enjoy these, and it is a great refresher even for those of us that have been flying awhile. Really great job.
Thank you! We are rolling out with a CFI series and videos of how your flight instructor oral exam will go. So far we have FOI task B, E, G and a CFI oral exam that has Area 1 task G, Area II tasks B and D! There’s going to be a continuation to that video as well. Stay tuned and hope you enjoy. Thanks for subscribing!
Very nice review! I'm an airline pilot, 41 years of flying and GA has evolved since I got my license (PPL) in 1982. Great review for me re-entering the GA world!
This is a great video! Thanks for sharing this. There were simple things like; When does a stall happen. When the wing reaches a critical AOA. I know this is 2yrs old but I hope he got caught up to speed with so many things that were missed here. And hopefully he passed the checkride by now! Good luck! Blue sky! and tip, stop being so cocky. All that "yeah yeah" is not a good look for a pilot. Happy Flying.
He passed his check ride and he’s also spotted an airport now because of this video lol but, this was friends and that’s why he was joking around. We all have a small community we like to have fun.
Hello, I am preparing for my ppl checkride. I did a mock oral and it did not go so well but after experiencing what it was like and especially watching this video, my confidence and understanding of what to expect is far higher than before. Thank you so much for this fantastic video!
This is an awesome video! It helped me get an idea of what a PPL checkride will be like. I noticed some things that were mentioned incorrectly by mistake because hey, we're only human after all lol. Magnetic Deviation card shows deviation, not variation. Airspeed Indicator uses both the Pitot Tube and Static Port. Altimeter only needs Static Pressure. I'm from Orlando training in Phoenix so it's nice to see some Florida related content! :)
The mock oral exams I've found on youtube are generally great. This one in particular is excellent though because they state what the correct answer is after each question. There are too many mock oral exam videos where they either don't state the right answer at all, or they wait until the very end of the mock exam and then only go over a few corrections - I think that can lead to problems for prospective pilots watching those videos.
Thank you. I cannot confidently say there are no errors but I did put 100% into looking things up and editing the video to the best of my ability. I’m glad you liked it.
Great video, keep it up. This guy made me realize that I’m over prepared already at 20 hours of flight time, but that’s probably good as I intend to go through all my ratings including CFI
They switched the systems up for the airspeed indicator and the altimeter. Airspeed needs pitot tube and static port and altimeter only uses the static port.
Thank you for posting this. It's so much easier when I am sitting here on my recliner. I could answer most of the questions watching from here , but I feel like I have a lot more that I need to know. Checkride is in 2-3 weeks. I am nervous and feel like a fraud about to be unmasked. lol.
Hey, I completely understand that! But don’t worry… Your DPE is not gonna be out to get you. All you really need to do is have a basic knowledge and know where to look things up when you don’t know the answer. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out! The private pilot rating is your license to learn.
@@ahmadsamadzai8255 that is great!!! Congratulations!!! Come back when you are ready for your commercial and multi engine checkrides! We have a few more videos that will be helpful!
What a great video. Thank you for giving detailed, correct answers. It gave me time to answer and if he was wrong you guys corrected and explained the answers. Excellent
Really good video. I'm about to go up for my check-ride in KDAB and have this videos with some scenarios I can encourage nearby it's super helpful. Thanks a lot guys.
May I add, this is an excellent video. I've taken many check rides over the years and this oral exam was conducted in an exemplary manner. Relaxed but professional. The supplemental information added by Bev was timely and correct. Strong work and thank you.
Compass deviation card accounts for deviation. Deviation is the interference between the compass and the airplane. How I remember deviation is caused by Da airplane.
I’m a former USAF pilot with Instrument, Commercial, Multi ratings. I flew two tours in Vietnam and owned a Bonanza 30 years ago. I couldn’t come close to passing this Private Pilot exam. I guess I could go back to school.
My instrument checkride had a landing with a stop on the runway and they take off. DPE didn't like touch and go's. A checkride thing, unlike most of the real world flying we do.
Sport pilot checkride canceled for today due to weather. If this video is an accurate indicator, I’m feeling pretty confident. A couple differences with sport pilot regs to remember but thanks for a great video.
You do have to need to know all of the Day and night VFR instrument / Equipment as stated in 91.205. This needs to be all closed book. You need to know all the items by memory for Convective Sigmet, Sigmet, Airmet.
I don't really agree with the statement that TAS increase even for a little in ground effect during landing; on short final right before entering ground effect, throttle is reduced, causing drag to be greater than thrust. This is the exact intent of the round out, to decelerate the aircraft as it approaches the runway. As the aircraft enters ground effect, induced drag is severely reduced, but not to the point where it would become lower than thrust forces (which are close to zero when the engine is idling at low speeds). I would agree that TAS deceleration is reduced when the aircraft enters ground effect, but I wouldn't agree that it actually ever increases. The argument would be different at constant thrust, say on a low pass over the runway in ground effect. Great video by the way! Very instructive
This was really good! And you can make it even better...some of the questions and answers were not understandable...please make another one with new questions...Thanks and make the next one great!
at 47:50 min, incorrectly stated pressure altitude is corrected for non standard temp. Great video with great questions, using for adding to my notes for my oral exam. * and at 57:36 sigmets not quite right. convective issued hourly. Non conv - issued every 4 hours... Bevin cleaned it up nicely tho ;)
Near the end you asked for the 4 causes of left turning tendencies. You covered spiral slipstream, p-factor, and torque, but missed the gyroscopic precession. Great video though
sigments are issued every 4 hours which is correct, but convective sigments are issued every 2 hours not 6. Airmets are issued every 6 hours. correct me if I am wrong. This video was very helpful I have my checkride in 4 days.
Incorrect, do not confuse words "valid" and "issued". Both Non-Convective SIGMETs (WS) and Convective SIGMETs (WST) are unschedule products, issued as necessary. WS when issue are valid for 4 hours (except SIGMETs associated with Tropical Cyclones and volcanic ash which are valid for 6 hours). On the other hand WST with continuing phenomenon will be reissued every hour.
@@BATAviation thank you! I should have been subscribed! I looked at my history and noticed I’ve watched plenty of your videos, especially the ones with the Archer. I’m almost done with my PPL and also fly an Archer. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you.
I "love" this mock checkride video ! I wish I had this when I was going through my PPL. I have already shared this video with other people I know who are starting their ppl to assist them. Great job on separating the section for private pilots and PPl to go back and refresh; it makes it easier to find. Tom and Bevin, awesome mock checkride ! I am in the category section now. I still have more to watch...
@@BATAviation Loved the video, however with the commercial interruptions it was miserable at best to watch. Perhaps that is not your fault, but good lord, seeing the same adds, over and over again, having to skip each one, interrupts the content delivery flow.
@@BATAviation Yes, they are and I don't mind skipping a few adds. I think 39, of mostly the same advertisement, is too much. Thank you, and keep up the good work.
In the portion he contacted FSS for a weather update, where did the 113.7 come from? Can FSS just contact you on any frequency you are using like a practice area frequency for example? Thanks in advance and thanks for the helpful video!
I asked Tom about this one and we are not postitive but we suppose they could if you were in the right place at the right time. Usually, to contact FSS, you would find the frequency that you can call them at and one to listen at (sometimes they are different) on your sectional. I hope this helps.
The 91.205 reference at the 18:15 mark is inaccurate. My DPE failed me on this part for my PPL ground portion. I couldn’t remember every item by heart but advised him that it could be located in 91.205. I asked him to allow me to go to that section in the FAR and he said this was not an open book quiz and then proceeded to explain I failed and the checkride was over. This is a DPE in central Florida and the checkride was 12.16.22.
That’s absolutely not true. You are able to look up this item as a private pilot. When you go for your certified flight instructor, that’s another story. your DPE was wrong by failing you for that.
I don’t really see this guy being very prepared at all or much confidence that everyone else claims lol. He says stuff like oh I’ll probably get it wrong right off bat and shouts out acronyms like how you become pilot and 91 how they take it away etc. like yes that’s technically true but he’s not really trying to get into it. He’s just throwing anything at it. But I don’t mean to sound negative.it’s a great video and great to use to help prepare for checkride absolutely:)
We do these mock oral exams to help the student prepare better for a check ride… This is not an actual check ride. :-) That’s why I try and correct as much as possible to help you guys out, Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I don't know if the regs were updated since the weather minimums used here, but currently helicopters operating in class G airspace below 1200 AGL are 1/2 mi CoC in day and 1 mi CoC at night. Deathwish minima, but there they are!
Just a small note at 22:55 - there's a spelling error in one of your symptoms of hypoxia (that, or an item from the mile high club chrcklist was copied over by mistake) 😉
The ant-crawling feeling on the skin is actually formication. Fornication has something to do with flying a mile high and performing certain, er, acts...
@@jacobanderson9292 test question: Special VFR in Class D □ the pilot must be Instrument rated & the airplane must be IFR equipped. The question said nothing about being night or day
@@joshuahunter2825 Gotcha, I'm just saying as an instrument rated commercial pilot, I know it an instrument rating only required when getting SVFR for night flight. The test answer may not reflect this but that is the correct answer if you are doing an oral with a DPE. Interesting fact, but you cannot fly in Europe at night at all without an instrument rating.
I am just starting my training and studying for my PPL. Using the Gleim tests prep. Intend to start my actual training in June 2023. I am really nervous now because it's so much material to learn. I'm wondering to myself.. how in the world am I going to retain all the knowledge needed to pass the check ride.
Yes! You don’t have to be perfect on your private pilot checkride. Just have a good strong knowledge and know where to look things up. Let me know how you do on yours! Thanks for subscribing.
Word of wisdom, next time use a darker color for the highlighted sentences in the video. White is never a good color on a bright background. Great video other than that! Thank you!
What are you looking for? Exactly? I’ve started creating my own PNG‘s to put in the videos that I edit to help people get their eyes on what we are talking about.
@@BATAviation That's the one! The PNG's. The Airspace Triangle especially looked really useful! Checkride is in a week and a day so I'm wanting to shore up anything I can.
@@Lamentationsofapoory email me atbataviation@gmail.com and I will try to get you as many useful documents as I can this weekend. I have a long day tomorrow, but hopefully tomorrow evening or Sunday I can send things your way.
I had a quick question about the IMSAFE checklist, the student said external pressures and then was corrected with eating/emotion. I had a CFI a couple of years ago who taught me that the E was eating/emotion, another CFI told me that its all 3, but my current CFI says that its only external pressures. I've always kinda just said all 3 because especially to me all 3 are worthy factors to be on that checklist
Prepping for my PPL check ride soon. Been very useful to watch mock oral exams like this, but yikes…the amount of times this applicant had to be corrected did not give me a lot of confidence in his knowledge! Don’t mean to bash the guy, but is this acceptable for an oral exam? Are DPEs that lax? I feel like there were just too many errors in his answers for a DPE to move on to the practical test. Maybe I’m over thinking it, but I think I’d be feel very unsure of myself as pilot if I had to be corrected this many times. Any thoughts??
Yes. It’s a license to learn. You are allowed to have errors. Remember though… We do these mock or exams and then try to correct them to the best of our ability that way people like you have a good basis on what they need to learn.
This guy scores a 40/100 in my book. Got 40% correct and 100%correct after he changed his answer after hearing the correct one. Talking about bullsh$tting a bullsh$tter. He could be a politician 😂
This was just a practice check ride that way we can work on areas that need to be worked on. That’s why I took the time to correct the answers on the video. For your viewing pleasure!
OH MY ... @ 22:50, the list of Hypoxia Symptoms ... I think you meant Formication (with an "m") - the feeling of insects crawling over your skin. Not fornication ... that would more appropriately fall under Euphoria. 🙂
That was his mock check Road that we do before every check ride. Afterwards we will review any discrepancies and re-train/study for them yes. He definitely passed his check ride. We highly recommend learning as much as possible, but also knowing where to look things up in the event that there is something that you forgot or Have trouble remembering. Your DP will not expect you to know everything, but have a strong knowledge and know where to look things up. I private pilot license is a license to learn. If you know who you will be taking your exam with then we recommend speaking to others, who have already taken their exam with the same GPE, and finding out what questions that he asked. That will help you know which areas you really need to study at four so you can pass with flying colors.
I really like this video because you explain what the right answer is after a wrong one. Other mock oral videos just continue without explaining whether it’s right or wrong and why.

A plane with 200 hp is not a high performance airplane. 61.31.f says the aircraft must have MORE than 200 hp to be considered high performance.
But what if the plane has 200.0001 hp 🤔
@@BobbyPlane6252 Then it’s considered high performance if anyone actually bothered to measure the horsepower that precisely :)
True. And in addition to adjustable prop and retracts, an aircraft needs flaps to be considered complex.
Well actually planes aren't powered by horses.
Which is exactly what the applicant says in the video

Tom and Bevin, awesome mock checkride ! I am in the category section now. I still have more to watch...
Thanks for the share!!!! Hope you’re doing better!
I don't believe 39 commercial interruptions are sufficient to annoy even the most casual observer. More please.
I’m not sure what you mean - sorry.
@@BATAviation Loved the video, however with the commercial interruptions it was miserable at best to watch. Perhaps that is not your fault, but good lord, seeing the same adds, over and over again, having to skip each one, interrupts the content delivery flow.
@@GTphar OK. I will check into that and see if I can do away with it. Thanks for the advice. Are the ads skippable?
@@BATAviation Yes, they are and I don't mind skipping a few adds. I think 39, of mostly the same advertisement, is too much. Thank you, and keep up the good work.
@@GTphar I agree… That is way too much for such a short video. Annoying! Thanks for subscribing to our channel.
Wow thanks 🙏🏾so much information
Thanks for subscribing! Good luck!
You are going to really need to know all of this information in this checkride by memory.
55:43 altimeter is only powered by the static system, NOT pitot-static
54:13 A standard rate turn is 2 min, to turn 180 degrees it will take 1 min NOT 30 seconds
Correct
In the portion he contacted FSS for a weather update, where did the 113.7 come from? Can FSS just contact you on any frequency you are using like a practice area frequency for example?
Thanks in advance and thanks for the helpful video!
I asked Tom about this one and we are not postitive but we suppose they could if you were in the right place at the right time. Usually, to contact FSS, you would find the frequency that you can call them at and one to listen at (sometimes they are different) on your sectional. I hope this helps.
Great video very helpful, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for subscribing!
Thank you for sharing!
No problem! Thank you for subscribing!
The 91.205 reference at the 18:15 mark is inaccurate. My DPE failed me on this part for my PPL ground portion. I couldn’t remember every item by heart but advised him that it could be located in 91.205. I asked him to allow me to go to that section in the FAR and he said this was not an open book quiz and then proceeded to explain I failed and the checkride was over. This is a DPE in central Florida and the checkride was 12.16.22.
That’s absolutely not true. You are able to look up this item as a private pilot. When you go for your certified flight instructor, that’s another story. your DPE was wrong by failing you for that.
I would have asked for my money back and told him that I want a DPE who knows what the hell he's talking about. Also, file a complaint with the FSDO.
@@ABQSentinel agreed
great video helped me learn a lot!
Excellent!!! Good luck on your checkride!!! Thanks for subscribing!!
I don’t really see this guy being very prepared at all or much confidence that everyone else claims lol. He says stuff like oh I’ll probably get it wrong right off bat and shouts out acronyms like how you become pilot and 91 how they take it away etc. like yes that’s technically true but he’s not really trying to get into it. He’s just throwing anything at it. But I don’t mean to sound negative.it’s a great video and great to use to help prepare for checkride absolutely:)
We do these mock oral exams to help the student prepare better for a check ride… This is not an actual check ride. :-) That’s why I try and correct as much as possible to help you guys out, Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I don't know if the regs were updated since the weather minimums used here, but currently helicopters operating in class G airspace below 1200 AGL are 1/2 mi CoC in day and 1 mi CoC at night. Deathwish minima, but there they are!
AIM 5-1-3 (g) says the ‘D’ NOTAM is ‘Domestic’ rather than Distant
Yes, you are correct
Just a small note at 22:55 - there's a spelling error in one of your symptoms of hypoxia (that, or an item from the mile high club chrcklist was copied over by mistake) 😉
😝
Thanks for this! Very helpful!
You’re welcome! Thank you for subscribing!!!
love the MK toasty
Haha - you’re the first person to comment on that one!
22:55 I had no idea hypoxia caused fornication but now that I know that I'm taking all of my dates above 15,000 feet on the first date.
Hahaha
The ant-crawling feeling on the skin is actually formication. Fornication has something to do with flying a mile high and performing certain, er, acts...
Helicopter G airspace cloud clearance is clear of clouds, both day and night. VIS is 1/2mi day , 1 mi night
I don’t know why Tom was throwing a helicopter in there when we are GA for airplanes only. Lol
@@BATAviation through me for a loop too. But all in all this is an excellent presentation!
@@Not-a-bot222 thank you!! Happy New Year!
Wow that woman knows her shit.
38:41 Special VFR has to be Instrument rated and has at lesat 1 mile VIS. This video is GOLD. $700 I am about to do my checkride
Thank you and thanks for subscribing!!! Good luck!!!
you don't have to be instrument rated for special VFR unless you are flying at night.
@@jacobanderson9292 test question:
Special VFR in Class D
□ the pilot must be Instrument rated & the airplane must be IFR equipped.
The question said nothing about being night or day
@@joshuahunter2825 Gotcha, I'm just saying as an instrument rated commercial pilot, I know it an instrument rating only required when getting SVFR for night flight. The test answer may not reflect this but that is the correct answer if you are doing an oral with a DPE. Interesting fact, but you cannot fly in Europe at night at all without an instrument rating.
At 22:52, that's forMication, a sensation of ants crawling over the skin. Fornication is something else altogether. 😉
Glad I’m not the only one who caught that! 🤣
Oops!!! LOL
Soooo helpful
Glad to help! Thanks for subscribing!
I am just starting my training and studying for my PPL. Using the Gleim tests prep. Intend to start my actual training in June 2023. I am really nervous now because it's so much material to learn. I'm wondering to myself.. how in the world am I going to retain all the knowledge needed to pass the check ride.
One step at a time!
great resource, would this have passed an oral btw?
Yes! You don’t have to be perfect on your private pilot checkride. Just have a good strong knowledge and know where to look things up. Let me know how you do on yours! Thanks for subscribing.
Word of wisdom, next time use a darker color for the highlighted sentences in the video. White is never a good color on a bright background. Great video other than that! Thank you!
Yeah - I tried multiple color’s but white ended up being the winner. I could always drop a background on it next time. Thanks for subscribing!!
@@BATAviation oh I understand, and thank you for responding! Great video, and very informative! 👍♥️
Did you have a collection.of images you pulled from for the examples? I seldom find such concise info sheets and I'd love to see the whole thing.
What are you looking for? Exactly? I’ve started creating my own PNG‘s to put in the videos that I edit to help people get their eyes on what we are talking about.
@@BATAviation That's the one! The PNG's. The Airspace Triangle especially looked really useful!
Checkride is in a week and a day so I'm wanting to shore up anything I can.
@@Lamentationsofapoory email me atbataviation@gmail.com and I will try to get you as many useful documents as I can this weekend. I have a long day tomorrow, but hopefully tomorrow evening or Sunday I can send things your way.
I had a quick question about the IMSAFE checklist, the student said external pressures and then was corrected with eating/emotion. I had a CFI a couple of years ago who taught me that the E was eating/emotion, another CFI told me that its all 3, but my current CFI says that its only external pressures. I've always kinda just said all 3 because especially to me all 3 are worthy factors to be on that checklist
It’s eating/emotion. External pressures is part of your PAVE checklist. :-)
Prepping for my PPL check ride soon. Been very useful to watch mock oral exams like this, but yikes…the amount of times this applicant had to be corrected did not give me a lot of confidence in his knowledge! Don’t mean to bash the guy, but is this acceptable for an oral exam? Are DPEs that lax? I feel like there were just too many errors in his answers for a DPE to move on to the practical test. Maybe I’m over thinking it, but I think I’d be feel very unsure of myself as pilot if I had to be corrected this many times. Any thoughts??
Yes. It’s a license to learn. You are allowed to have errors. Remember though… We do these mock or exams and then try to correct them to the best of our ability that way people like you have a good basis on what they need to learn.
Really good video!
Thank you! Thanks for subscribing!
Just FYI, "Fornication" is NOT an indication of Hypoxia. lol!!! I think you meant "Formication". Autocorrect strikes again. min: 22:58
😆
This guy scores a 40/100 in my book. Got 40% correct and 100%correct after he changed his answer after hearing the correct one. Talking about bullsh$tting a bullsh$tter.
He could be a politician 😂
This was just a practice check ride that way we can work on areas that need to be worked on. That’s why I took the time to correct the answers on the video. For your viewing pleasure!
Mr tough guy can't be influenced
OH MY ... @ 22:50, the list of Hypoxia Symptoms ... I think you meant Formication (with an "m") - the feeling of insects crawling over your skin. Not fornication ... that would more appropriately fall under Euphoria. 🙂
25:15 Incorrect. Hypoxia is lack of oxygen to the *body not just the *brain.
Just curious - How much additional studying did the student do before the real check ride, and did he pass?
That was his mock check Road that we do before every check ride. Afterwards we will review any discrepancies and re-train/study for them yes. He definitely passed his check ride. We highly recommend learning as much as possible, but also knowing where to look things up in the event that there is something that you forgot or Have trouble remembering. Your DP will not expect you to know everything, but have a strong knowledge and know where to look things up. I private pilot license is a license to learn. If you know who you will be taking your exam with then we recommend speaking to others, who have already taken their exam with the same GPE, and finding out what questions that he asked. That will help you know which areas you really need to study at four so you can pass with flying colors.
Eh, sorry about the typos. I was using voice text.
