I’ll check it out, thanks. Hopefully it’ll help with my interview.

I just checked and only saw it as a book, not an ebook. Do you know if an ebook is available?

I already own "pilot's handbook of aeronautical knowledge" and "airplane flying handbook" from previous training.
All you need to do to pass the written is get the asa test prep on iPad (not sure if it’s on other tablets or not). Study each question once through with only looking at the correct answer. After that take the practice tests over and over again until you get 3 90s and then go get a endorsement to take the test and then take the test. You will get to the point where you won’t even have to read the question and you’ll just click on the correct answer. You can get it done in less than a week if you really try hard at it.

For any other written besides private get Sheppard air test prep. They don’t have private test prep is why I suggest asa.

They do, I finally got it downloaded to my iPad. I haven’t had a chance to start reading the sample because I’m reading some articles for grad school.

Default Email for interview

Hey guys! I just got my email for the in person interview. I'm excited to say the least. I've been reading through the posts and was wondering that some of you had a Skype interview. Apparently they skipped that part with me. Anyone else? Is that a new thing? I also applied and took the assessment for American Airlines academy too. But I haven't heard back yet. I applied for both programs at the same time about a couple of weeks ago. Has anyone else? Thanks!

Why does everyone act like they owe Lift academy something by interviewing? Flight schools take who ever shows up with money. Believe me you will pay for every cent of your flight training.

I didn’t feel I owed LIFT Academy something when I interviewed.
