Gold Seal Ground SchoolsReviews of groundschool.com

Hands down a 5-star experience! Gold Seal is well organized, continuously updated to reflect regulatory changes, and professionally developed. The lessons are interactive, with milestone checks along the way. Gold Seal pushes the student to learn, not memorize, and be truly prepared to navigate, aviate, and communicate. The online community, availability, and response times are incredible resources as well. Huge thanks to Russell & team for the great product, and happy to report an A on my FAA Written!

I began my journey as a pilot in 2022 and opted to use Gold Seal as my ground school to achieve my private pilot certification. A dream I have had since 6 years old- I still remember watching the Blue Angels take off at Alliance Airshow for the first time. The course is extremely informative and engaging. Years later, I achieved my CFI with the intention of providing outstanding instruction for the next generation of aviators. Gold Seal, once again, is changing the game. Using their online platform I am able to keep track of my students progress and identify deficiencies. The syllabus allows me to correlate what’s learned online to the classroom- and eventually the airplane. This allows me to be a better instructor and give intentional training to my students. No matter where you are in your pilot journey, I couldn’t recommend Gold Seal more!!

I've tried multiple online ground schools, including MzeroA and Part-Time Pilot. MzeroA is the most comprehensive as far as what's included, but it's by far the most expensive! If you want to thoroughly learn the knowledge required to pass the FAA Private Pilot Written Exam, Gold Seal is the most cost affective ground school. For me personally, it was also the best at keeping me engaged.

I used Gold Seal for my Private Pilot and Instrument Rating training and was very pleased with the quality of the videos and the thoughtful design and navigation of their ground school. I completed the Commercial license before the release of the Commercial ground school, but knowing the high quality they produce gives me confidence that it is just as good as their other ground schools. I am now a CFI and plan to have my students study using Gold Seal. They offer an excellent CFI backend student management portal, allowing us to track our students' progress and access additional information. I highly recommend this ground school for a modern approach and a dependable resource.

The level of detail and support

Good demonstrations and scenario based examples.

Very well made and I only did not just learn things for the written test I also learned much that is needed for the checkride! Well worth.

I just scored a 92% on both a practice final and final exam with Gold Seal. I plan to take the real written test soon and am very confident that I will pass the exam with flying colors. The materials are excellent and made everything as understandable as possible as easily as possible. The variety of materials (videos, graphics, text, supplementary materials) kept it interesting. The quizzes, stage checks, and final exams, along with the ability to see which questions I got wrong to know what I need to study more made the path forward to progress pretty clear. The Facebook group has been very helpful to me with all sorts of aviation questions, even beyond the ground school material. Russell Still is very accessible and helpful.
