The 2024 Private Pilot Syllabus has been updated for FAA-S-ACS-6C tasks that apply to each ground lesson in addition to flight lessons and to align with new textbook content, such as energy management, graphic weather products, and threat and error management. In addition, the syllabus now introduces Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA). Additional features include a step-by-step description of course contents, lesson objectives, flight and ground time allocations for all lessons, and coordination of other academic support materials with your flight training.
The Guided Flight Discovery (GFD) Private Pilot Syllabus provides the framework for Part 141 and Part 61 ground and flight training, emphasizing the building-block method of teaching— new material builds on what a student has already mastered. You can use the syllabus with the GFD Private Pilot textbook, Private Pilot online course, or both study references. A unique syllabus feature is an appendix with tables that depict how the objectives and tasks listed in the ground and flight training lessons correspond to the aeronautical knowledge and flight tasks required by Part 141, Part 61, and the FAA Private Pilot — Airplane Airman Certification Standards (ACS). The 2024 Private Pilot Syllabus has been updated to indicate the ACS tasks that apply to each ground lesson in addition to flight lessons and to align with new textbook content, such as energy management, graphic weather products, and threat and error management. In addition, the syllabus now introduces Competency-Based Training and Assessment (CBTA). |
