Gold Seal Ground SchoolsReviews of groundschool.com

Gold Seal is the real deal! I’ve used Gold Seal for both my Private and Instrument training and have had nothing but a great experience throughout. I scored very well on both exams, and I truly can’t thank Russ and the team enough for the quality of the material and instruction. I recently purchased the Commercial ground course and already find it incredibly valuable. What stands out most is that the platform focuses on actually teaching and simplifying concepts instead of encouraging rote memorization. The courses make complex topics easy to understand while preparing you extremely well for the written exam. I would highly recommend Gold Seal to anyone serious about building strong aviation knowledge and performing well on their checkrides and written tests.

Gold Seal has got to be the best online training program out there for whatever course you need! I used Gold Seal for my private, got an 88 on my written exam, and passed with flying colors on the checkride! The way Gold Seal teaches you the material really makes you understand it and makes you feel like you’re in the same room as the instructors, compared to other competitors. I recommend this to anyone out there seeking a career in aviation, or those that just want to fly for fun!

I was looking for help with my IPC and thankfully Russell reached out and was more than willing to help. He’s extremely experienced, easy to work with, and made the whole process smooth and comfortable. The program itself is very straightforward and easy to follow. It helped me build confidence and improve my radio communication much faster. The instructors are a huge reason for that. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to sharpen their skills and grow as a pilot.

I finished Gold Seal's private pilot ground school and passed my knowledge test with a 90%. The course itself was a good overview of the knowledge needed for the PPL, and I'm giving it 5 stars because of that plus Russ, the owner, seems to really care about improving the course. I had some feedback for him on some lessons that were a bit disorganized, and he personally responded and took a call with me to understand what he could improve. That was a very nice move that he didn't have to do, and I appreciated the gesture.

Took the IFR ground school after using another ground school for my PPL, loved the course format in videos, very high quality graphics that are good visuals.

I have used Gold Seal for private and instrument written tests and scored 95% and 100%. Gold Seal's course layout, tools, and lessons are all awesome. They do a fantastic job actually teaching you the material so that memorization is not required for the majority of knowledge. I recommend Gold Seal to everyone looking for a ground school.

Gold Seal is the standard for ground school. Russ and his team do an incredible job of explaining the topics required. They helped me pass my written and found the course super helpful when studying for checkride. I’m now working on IFR ground with them and will continue their program through commercial. Can’t recommend enough.

I took PPL course. Went through the lessons and also used provided FAA materials (links on the lessons materials). Got 92 on my written.
