Preparing for an Instrument Proficiency Check can be difficult because it requires a broad overview of the current instrument flight rules and procedures.  Instrument Proficiency Check Prep includes over 165 common questions with suggested answers. The pilot can select one of 7 topics for each study session.

Questions are presented in flashcard style. Graphical images are provided when needed. When the pilot views the suggested answer, they can indicate if they answered satisfactorily or if they would like to review the question again. Learning all of the questions allows the pilot to be prepared and confident for the knowledge needed for the FAA Instrument Proficiency Check.

The topics included are airport operations, avionics & navigation, emergencies, federal aviation regulations, flight instruments, IFR charts & approach plates and IFR procedures.

The app is free with 2 of the 7 topics unlocked. The remaining topics can be purchased with a single In-App purchase.
