ASA's Oral Exam Guide Series is an excellent study tool for students and instructors alike. Arranged in a question-and-answer format, this comprehensive guide lists the questions most likely to be asked by examiners and provides succinct, ready responses. Use when you're gearing up for the Practical Exam, as well as for a general refresher. FAA references are provided throughout for further study.

This ninth edition of the Commercial Pilot Oral Exam Guide by Michael D. Hayes has been updated to reflect the Airman Certification Standards and new questions and references have been added throughout. Thorough explanations of pilot responsibilities, technical subject areas and the required maneuvers—including steep spirals and power-off accuracy approach/landings—are covered in this simulated oral test format. Other topics include Aeronautical Decision Making and Cockpit Resource Management (ADM and CRM), dealing with situational awareness and the use of checklists.

This guide also includes a chapter dedicated to scenario-based questions, by contributing author Arlynn McMahon. Student responses to these "open-ended" questions demonstrate an understanding of the big picture and convey the practical application of what's important and why.

The Commercial Pilot Oral Exam Guide is the comprehensive guide to prepare you for the FAA checkride.
