At GoFly, you can take all your RPC and Nav theory exams and have them marked and receive feedback, for free, as part of your general training.
The Sling Workbook needs to be signed off prior to the first solo flight. You will find it above, on this page. Kindly print off the last two answer pages only and complete the short quiz at the end of the workbook and bring it in so your instructor can mark it.
Pre-Solo and Radio exams
We would recommend you sit the Pre-Solo and Radio exams after completing the first couple of circuit sessions so you’re ready for your first solo flight! The pass mark is 80%.
There are theory practice exams on your GoFly Online website to help you with your Pre-solo, BAK and radio exams. You can find them here: https://gofly.online/gofly-quiz/theory/recreational-pilot-certificate/
From late January 2022, GoFly students (and anyone else who purchases a Premium subscription to GoFly Online) will also be able to access our interactive Easy Books for Pre-solo, Radio, BAK, Human Factors and Air Legislation. This saves students hundreds of dollars as they no longer need to buy text books.
