CPAER

Date of CPAER - 06-13, 2025 I had my first written exam expired which led me to start preparing for another round of CPAER in hurry. After not having to touch the ground school material for nearly 2 years and having only 2 weeks of time to prep felt quite daunting. Nevertheless, the course prepped me perfectly, filling the crevasse of missing knowledges. I went and reviewed materials that I had a slightest doubts in and ended up re-covering 60% of the materials. With many reviews and recollection of memories, I was able to pass the written exam. This was particularly important as I had to fly 500km away from my home to attempt the test, and of course, the questions had to be tougher than the first one. Along the many hurdles, I had to request the recommendation and completion letters only 2 days before the examination date. Of course, Mr. Penner was very generous in instruction on how I could acquire one and the rest became a history. And today, I came back to start my instructor rating ground school! Thanks Harv's Air

CPAER · 88%

Passed the exam first attempt with 88%, and 100% in the navigation section (thanks to your stellar videos). - Questions were extremely similar if not identical to the tests on your website. - Mine was done on the Edmonton VNC, flying a route from Lloydminster (at point Streamstown), to Vegreville to Edmonton City Airport. There was a diversion due to weather from the north to Camrose. Thanks for the fantastic course, and I’ll see you soon during my CPL!

FAQ

Do I need to watch all the videos?

Not necessarily. As long as you can get 100% on the quizzes, you're good. Everyone learns differently — some prefer videos, others presentations or reading reference manuals. Use the method that suits you best.

How are ground school hours counted?

We track your quiz completions to determine how much material you've covered. Unlike simply logging hours watching videos, quizzes confirm you’re actively learning.
