Your training library just got smarter — instant PDF search, personal document uploads with AI-powered organization, and a flight school directory.
Pass your checkride with the ACS in your pocket.
Aviation Resources puts the complete FAA library — every Airman Certification Standard, handbook, and advisory circular — in one free app, organized the way you actually train.
STUDY THE ACS, TASK BY TASK
Every area of operation and task from the Private Pilot, Instrument, Commercial, ATP, and Remote Pilot ACS, with the knowledge, risk management, and skill elements your examiner grades you against.
BUILD REAL LESSONS
Create lessons from ACS tasks with your CFI and export a printable sheet to take in the airplane. Know exactly what's been covered and what still needs work before your checkride.
PRACTICE TESTS FROM DRONE TO ATP
Question banks for the FAA written exams, so you can study where you left off — no separate test-prep purchase.
YOUR WHOLE LIBRARY, ONE PLACE
All the FAA handbooks and advisory circulars, searchable and organized by ACS task. Upload your own PDFs — POH, school syllabus, checklists — and keep everything together.
Free to use. Built by a pilot, for pilots in training.
You’ve done a wonderful thing here, I absolutely love the app and how it’s organized. But on iPad I can’t collapse the left menu sidebar, so I a can only read the document on the right half of the screen. This honestly makes it almost unusable given the two-column format of the FAA handbooks. Little bug, huge consequences. Please fix this and I’ll immediately change to 5 stars. Thanks!
Developer Response
The app has been updated with a more appropriate modal. Please let me know if you have any feature requests! Thanks.
Exactly what I have been looking for!
