Aspiring aviation maintenance technicians (AMTs) have a powerful new resource to help them prepare for their FAA General, Airframe and Powerplant knowledge tests. King Schools has just released a suite of test prep apps tailored specifically for each exam. Providing stand-alone test prep is a new product category for the aviation education leader.
Available now from the King Schools website, students can choose from three individual test prep apps, namely General, Airframe or Powerplant, or opt for the complete three-test bundle covering all required written exams for A&P certification.
According to King Schools, each app includes three essential tools: Question review – provides practice with a large database of FAA-style questions grouped by subject area. Each question supplies clear, detailed explanations for both correct and incorrect answers; practice exams – simulate the actual FAA testing experience with three full-length curated practice exams, plus unlimited randomised quizzes. Learners can bookmark tough questions, review results and build test-day confidence; and flashcards – reinforce learning with self-paced flashcards. Learners can track their progress with a fun 'Thumbs Up' acknowledgment of understanding so they can focus on topics they still have to master.
“This is a new direction for King Schools,” remarks Barry Knuttila, CEO and co-owner of King Schools. “We've taken the test prep feature, previously only available as part of our full A&P courses, and made it available in a mobile-friendly, stand-alone format. These apps are designed to be flexible and easy to use online or offline, and are fully compatible with iOS, Android, and desktop web browsers; perfect for studying anytime, anywhere and helping future mechanics more easily reach their goals. With the well-documented ongoing shortage of aviation mechanics, we hope this product empowers those studying for these critical exams.”
John M. Dowd, King Schools VP of marketing, adds: “Whether you're just beginning your A&P journey or need to sharpen your skills before exam day, the King Schools A&P test prep apps provide a powerful study companion from start to pass.”
