Pilot Institute Reviews

Excellent so far covering all the parts of this drone and equipment

Good review and put a lot of the material in context within and around the aircraft. I've never seen an engine without the cowling, or visualized where the fuel pumps are. Very helpful.

The course appears to cover completely the full range of very subjects. Being able to watch and then re-watch videos makes the dense material accessible. I feel I'm getting the confidence I need to take the Part 107 certification test, though I won't know for use until I actually take it of course.

I just passed the Part 107 test after completing the Pilot Institute course. It was great training. Very well put together. I decided to go through the Recreational Flyer course just as a sort of reminder, and in case there was any additional info. Greg does a great job teaching, and is very easy to listen to. I will be continuing on with Pilot Institute in the future. I haven't decided which course yet, but I know it'll be Pilot Institute for sure. Great job to Greg and the Team. The only thing I wish they would have covered a bit more was about the magenta "vignett" (dotted circle) around an airport inside class E starting at 700ft. I didn't remember anything about that from the training at all. I don't remember what the question was asking, and even if I did I'm not supposed to say haha. At the end of the day, I passed and studying was a lot easier with Pilot Institute training course. DON'T MEMORIZE THE PRACTICE TEST QUESTIONS. Greg says it several times, and it's true. If you memorize the questions, you will probably not pass the test.

Good summary of subjects with quizzes and progress tracking. Would recommend to more independent self-study type of people as you still might need to supplement some topics with outside sources. Greg is funny, likeable, and knowledgeable and a good instructor. 9/10!

I like this class, very easy to understand and interesting. With that said, it turns out that I am not going to be using the COA, as I am a independent commercial pilot. Will still finish the class though.

I previously went through much of this course but the results were not saved. I went from 40% to 48% then back to 40%.

This program is very user friendly, taking away any learning curve around using the resources so that I can start learning the information I needed to become a pilot. Material is very easy to understand and explained in a very understandable manner. This curriculum has not only focused on giving me the answers to pass the test but how I can be a great pilot.

Solid course. The topics are outlined in a logical progression with FAA source materials to reference. The system allows for the video presentation speed to be adjusted to slow down or speed up the content. I appreciate the addition of some audio only recaps to help reinforce subjects. I would have liked more visual aids in the video presentations or if the instructor used props or actual UAs for demonstration purposes. Overall, this course gave me the tools I needed to learn the knowledge necessary to be a successful UA pilot and pass the FAA Airman Knowledge Exam. Thank you Pilot Institute!

Clear and concise information and professional delivery. So much detail in the presentations, that I needed to watch some of the videos again to absorb everything. Well done!

The amount of detail and information make this course valuable. The short video clips explaining the concepts and actually applying the concepts in the field for the student keeps you engaged. Training made fun!

Very thorough and informative. Most lessons I understand very easily and I feel confident that once I finish this course I can pass my test with no issues!

As I've stated before, the combination of the reference material, followed by Greg's presentation helps a lot to instill the information in my mind. Greg also uses good examples to add to that.

Date of experience: October 24, 2024

The class is very informative and covers everything on the Exam. It is self paced, which is important because of my busy schedule. Greg offers many great tips and tricks for excelling in the exam.

As somebody with great anxitety around learning / testing on new things, I can say that I'd be shocked if there were another 107 course out there, that did this good a job making the material this easy to learn and study, bravo.
