GLIDER PILOT GROUND SCHOOL
see bottom of this page for upcoming ground schools
Written Test Preparation Books

Years ago (Far more than I'd like to remember) I and several others from my local glider club, took the one day GPGS course with Edgar Seymour at our local airport. The course is specifically designed, not to teach everything you need to know to fly gliders, but is aimed at getting you ready to take and PASS the FAA required written knowledge test for your pilots certificate. The course specifically answers the questions and gives the right answers and covers the tests so anyone can pass this exam. These are the same guide books used for the ground school course, updated and the same guides used today with the once again active GPGS courses given across the country today by Edgar's sons who have reinvigorated and continued the programs starting again in 2006.
The GPGS will be back on the road covering 12 cities starting with the SSA convention in Arlington Texas February 4th and 5th 2006. For details on where and when please contact Dave Seymour at Z3PLT@yahoo.com or call (877)FLY-GPGS
These low cost guides will help you pass the FAA written test the first time and are geared specifically at the "GLIDER" pilot written test saving you time and effort by not having to study additional questions and answers that are not applicable to glider pilots and their required test questions and are now available from W&W.
