The Instrument Rating (IRA) written exam is infamously difficult, and it’s only gotten tougher. Since 2011, the FAA has expanded the test pool and removed commonly recycled questions, making rote memorization nearly useless.

​

In 2024, the national pass rate hovered around 83%, with average scores barely above 80%. That’s just 10 points from failing—and miles from being checkride-ready.

​

AirTest Pro keeps those surprises from derailing you. Our question-by-question explanations, each linked to official FAA references, plus real-world scenario drills and weekly content refreshes turn rote knowledge into “I-can-explain-this-to-anyone” mastery, so you enter the knowledge test (and the checkride that follows) calm, quick, and genuinely confident.

​

Memorizing questions and answers won’t cut it - and no app can replace the guidance of a real flight instructor.

 

What AirTest Pro does offer is everything your CFI wants you to master between lessons: clear FAA-referenced explanations, scenario-rich drills, and weekly updates that keep the material sharp. So when the test throws a curveball, you’re ready for it, and when you’re back in the cockpit, the knowledge actually sticks.
