Great Score on the Private Written!

August 26, 2026 7:33PM EST

Just giving you some feedback... Using your software I passed my test with 95%!. At first I was quite disappointed with myself. I knew going in my track record for testing in that I tend to overthink questions and second guess myself. I did my best to avoid this and in the end it paid off well as the reason I missed the few questions was specifically because I didn't second guess them and chose the first answer. They were of course trick question I hadn't seen before and probably shouldn't have rushed such easy questions. At any rate everyone I've spoken with thought I did very well and I'm happy! I owe my success to your software! I also found it extremely useful to see my progress by submitting my tests to the online section tracking section of Dauntless. I am now mere practice hours from checkride! Thanks again!

Why use checklists?

We've improved and updated our famous Why Checklists? page. Useful and illustrative for student pilots and instructors, yes, but perhaps especially for experienced pilots!

A 97 is an EXCELLENT score on the tough IFR written test! We're glad we could help you out and good luck on that checkride!

This software was absolutely essential to me getting a great score on the CAX, IRA, and FIA exams. I simply could not have done without it.

This is by far the best package I've used for studying for the FAA tests, and your prices are unbeatable. I'll definitely be recommending it to others.

Aviation Mechanic - General test success!

August 19, 2026 6:14PM EST

I scored really highly on my General test!
This program with the constant updates helped me tremendously. I have the FAA books, but they did not help me at all.
You cannot beat this program for studying and passing your A&P test.
Now I'm studying the Airframe portion.

100% on the Private Written!

August 19, 2026 5:58PM EST

My passing score was 100% and I don't think I could have done it without this software.... Your software really honed what I needed to know without a lot of fluff. It let me know what topics needed I needed to study more. Here's how I studied:

Took all 800+ test questions with immediate feedback whether I got it right or wrong so I'd know the principle.
Took a number of 60-item pretests. Saved the results online in case I wanted a CFI to sign off for the test.
Took a pretest for each topic in order, consisting of all the items for that topic.
Decided to have your CFI sign off, so I took five practice tests and paid my $$.
Once I got my sign-off, I took a pretest for each topic again as preparation for the exam.
Scheduled and took the real exam through CATS as soon as I finished the topical tests.
My actual exam was all recall and some minimal calculations. I didn't have to use either side of my E6B - only a couple of calculator questions and some map problems with no wind or variation corrections.
Now I'm looking for a flight instructor!

Ground Instructor Success!

I want to take this opportunity to congratulate Dauntless in assisting me in passing my Ground Instructor Basic, FAA knowledge test, last Friday. You have a very good system for helping one to retain information, by the unique method of question exercise. I will be introducing my students to Dauntless!
