Had Sporty's pilot training app for a year now. Excellent content and has really helped me to progress in flight training, and has been a great source of prep for the written faa exam. Looking forward to finishing up my ticket by end of July. Thanks Sporty's for being in my corner!

I used sports for my PPL, passed all test. You gotta study study study. Don't just expect to watch the videos and get it all down 100%.

Google Cast functionality is unusable. I bought the Instrument Course from Sporty's because it seemed like it had better viewing options than the King course's outdated player. Sporty's app fails to Cast for longer than 5 seconds in any video. I have no internet connectivity issues, any other Google Cast app works flawlessly on the same network and devices; Sporty's app is the only one with problems.

FIRC? Why is it not on here if it's already a part of my course history and CFI account? For CFIs having the FIRC available through this app with be extremely helpful. A good portion of the courses are not on here.

Can't play videos in mini player to take notes. If you tab off video to take notes the video restarts from the beginning. Test questions repeat themselves over and over. Lack of reference material as others have mentioned. Hoping that when I finish the course I'll actually get the endorsement.

It didn't work on my device, and my Young Eagles account was cancelled, but I had the free student account after I did my YE flight.
