PPL Checkride Checklist (Documentation)

[CC268]

Hey guys,

I would like to put together a little packet of documentation together for my examiner: medical, ID, knowledge exam results, etc...this seems like a pretty good list: http://faaflighttest.us/PPSELCheckrideChecklist.pdf

Just seeing if you guys have any recommendations.

Thanks.

That's a slick one, but the new ACS has a checklist in the Appendices in the back. Personally, I'd use that one. Here's a version of the ACS that has been abridged to reduce the number of pages - items related to seaplanes have been removed and color-coding has been added:

The old PTS had a checklist too. One for you, one for the examiner.

The ACS is the horse's mouth.

It is NOT KOSHER to distribute a modified unofficial document bearing the FAA logo and the Flight Standards director's signature. That is, unless they have officially endorsed your changes.

Even good changes should never be presented as though they are official FAA documents, unless they are.

Hogwash. It's a very useful modification, highly downloaded and used. It is clearly marked regarding the changes and the source of the changes. It's no less official than someone else's paper copy where he tore out and discarded some pages. No FAA text was changed.

Now if you want to talk KOSHER, here's a guy who claims the FAA asked him to rewrite the PHAK and AFH and he now calls himself a "best selling" author based on their sales.

I'm not disputing that it's useful, but it is not appropriate for you to leave official markings on your document. It is not an official document, but including the markings makes it appear that it is.

Do you really not understand what an official government document is? That says it is the ACS, complete with logo and signature, but it isn't. You are neither the FAA nor Flight Standards, you do not legitimately speak for them, and it is not correct for you to pretend to do so. But that's exactly what that logo means.

I'm not impressed with Jason Schappert's claims either, but that's not relevant. You're effectively claiming approval from the Administrator that you do not have.

My flight will be to PTS...it is before ACS is going to be in place. I really like Jason Schappert btw lol...
