We just launched! We need YOU to help us become helpful to student pilots. Please , review your current or past CFIs, schools, and write DPE gouges! You can add your CFI or flight school if they are missing. Our site is, and always will be, completely free.

What the site does, how to use it, and the rules everyone is held to.
Finding an examiner
The examiner directory
Open Rate My DPE from the header. Filter by airport and by checkride type. An examiner's overall pass rate across every test tells you much less than their record on the specific ride you are taking.
Advanced filters
- Minimum examiner rating — 3+ through 4.5+.
- Minimum pass rate — reported, and excluding discontinuances.
- Maximum fee — compares the median reported fee. DPEs with no reported fee are hidden.
- Include check airmen — off by default, but can be enabled.
