Students stall when aviation stops at the airport. CFI In Your Pocket keeps it top of mind every day, so you show up to each lesson sharper than the last. Every line of the Private Pilot ACS mapped to the exact PHAK, AFH, AIM, and FAR references, plus an AI DPE for voice mock oral checkrides and weekly live Q&As with a CFI. Built by a flight instructor for student pilots.
No spam. Just launch news and your founding-member offer.
Most student pilots don't stall in the airplane. They stall between lessons, when days go by without thinking about aviation and each flight starts with relearning the last one.
Our mission: keep aviation top of mind every day between lessons, with short, FAA-sourced touchpoints that turn the gaps in your schedule into progress toward your checkride.
Study smarter, show up prepared, and walk into your checkride knowing where every answer comes from.
Practice your oral the way it really happens. Hear a DPE-style scenario question, answer out loud, and get instant feedback on what you covered and what you missed, with FAA citations. Natural follow-up questions dig deeper, and a debrief shows which ACS areas to study next. See how it works →
Ask any checkride question, like "What is BasicMed?", and Wingman, an AI assistant, answers in plain English with the FAA source cited (PHAK, AIM, 14 CFR). It's AI, so always confirm with your CFI.
Every task and element of the Private Pilot ACS linked to its FAA source material: PHAK, Airplane Flying Handbook, AIM, and 14 CFR.
Quick daily quizzes on the ACS, with the right answer and its FAA source after every question.
Clear, practical explanations of the topics students struggle with most, written by a CFI.
Bring your questions every week and get answers from a certificated flight instructor.
Collaborate with other student pilots, share study tips, and swap checkride stories.
Illustrative example of the format.
A mock oral checkride you can take anytime, out loud, from your phone.
The AI DPE asks a checkride-style scenario question, like planning tomorrow's cross-country.
Tap the mic and talk it through, just like you would in front of an examiner.
See what you covered and missed, with FAA citations, answer natural follow-ups, and finish with a debrief of your weak ACS areas.
Less than the cost of six minutes in a rental airplane.
Quick answers before takeoff.
We're building now. Waitlist members hear first and get early access before the public.
Student pilots working toward a Private Pilot certificate (airplane), whether you're just starting ground school or getting ready for your checkride.
The Vault references official FAA publications: the Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, Airplane Flying Handbook, Aeronautical Information Manual, and the Federal Aviation Regulations.
No. It's a study companion that helps you get more out of every lesson. Your CFI still signs you off.
No. The AI DPE is practice to help you prepare for your oral exam. It doesn't replace your CFI or a designated pilot examiner, and it can't sign you off or predict your checkride result. Always verify answers against current FAA publications.
Yes. It's month to month, with no contracts.
Totally free, with no payment info needed.
