Your instructor may also discuss real-world scenarios to test aeronautical decision-making. Expect questions about airspace, regulations, navigation, emergency procedures, and recent FAA rule changes. Reviewing the FAR/AIM, sectional charts, and weather reports can help ensure youre prepared for any questions that arise.
