Ground instruction is an essential part of obtaining your FAA Private Pilot license.
Under Section 61.107, Flight Proficiency, a student pilot must receive and log ground and flight training as one of the requirements to be eligible to take their Private Pilot flight check for a FAA Private Pilot License.
Ground School helps a student pilot learn the concepts and regulations behind the maneuvers they practice with their instructor (or solo) in the air!
