Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Jeppesen Private Pilot 61 All-in-One Training Kit?
This kit bundles the core resources for FAA Part 61 private pilot training in one package. It includes the Private Pilot Textbook and Maneuvers Manual, the FAA Airman Knowledge Test Guide, the Practical Test Study Guide, and the Private Airman Certification Standards. You also get an E6B flight computer, a PN-1 navigation plotter, a pilot logbook, and a durable black flight bag.
Is this kit built for the Part 61 training path, and how does it differ from a Part 141 kit?
Yes. This is the Part 61 version, tailored for the flexible, instructor-paced Part 61 path used by many independent instructors and flight schools. Both Part 61 and Part 141 lead to the same private pilot certificate. Part 141 kits are built around an FAA-approved school syllabus and can differ in contents, so choose the version that matches your program.
Does this kit prepare me for the written and checkride exams?
Yes. The Private Pilot Textbook and Maneuvers Manual build your ground school knowledge, while the FAA Airman Knowledge Test Guide targets the written exam. The Practical Test Study Guide and Private Airman Certification Standards prepare you for the checkride by showing what examiners expect. Pair the kit with flight instruction from your CFI to complete your training.
Can I pass the written knowledge test using this kit alone?
The kit gives you the textbook and FAA Airman Knowledge Test Guide that cover the knowledge test material, and many self-paced students prepare successfully with these resources. Some learners still prefer a structured ground school course or instructor guidance. Either way, you must train with a certified flight instructor to complete the flight portion and reach your checkride.
Is the Knowledge Test Guide based on the FAA private pilot test material?
Yes. The FAA Airman Knowledge Test Guide is built around the private pilot knowledge test subject material, with answers, explanations, and study references. It is designed to prepare you for the written exam alongside the textbook. Pairing focused review of this guide with the textbook is a common way students get ready for the knowledge test.
What is the E6B flight computer in the kit used for, and what type is it?
The kit includes a manual slide-style E6B flight computer, the entry-level training model most students begin with. You use it for the flight planning math at the heart of cross country navigation, including time, speed, distance, fuel burn, and wind correction. Learning the E6B is a fundamental skill students must demonstrate during training and on the practical test.
What is the navigation plotter included in the kit used for?
The kit includes a Jeppesen PN-1 navigation plotter. A plotter is a clear ruler and protractor tool you use on aeronautical sectional charts to measure distances and plot courses between airports. Together with the E6B flight computer, it lets you complete the manual cross country flight planning that student pilots must demonstrate during training and on the practical test.
Is the FAR/AIM regulations manual included in this kit?
No. This Jeppesen Private Pilot Part 61 kit does not include the FAR/AIM regulations manual. The kit focuses on the textbook, Maneuvers Manual, test guides, Airman Certification Standards, and flight planning tools. Most students add a current FAR/AIM separately, since the regulations and Aeronautical Information Manual are important references throughout your training.
Is this the printed version of the kit or an ebook?
This all-in-one kit is the physical package. It ships with printed books and manuals plus tangible tools, including the E6B flight computer, PN-1 navigation plotter, pilot logbook, and a black flight bag to carry everything. If you specifically want a digital ebook study set instead, that is a separate Jeppesen format and not what this bundled kit provides.
What is the part or model number for this kit?
The manufacturer part number is 10001948-R2. If you are comparing bundles or confirming you are ordering the Part 61 configuration rather than the Part 141 version, that identifier helps verify you have the correct all-in-one package. Contact our team with any questions about the kit contents.
Who is this Jeppesen training kit best for, and does it qualify for free shipping?
It suits aspiring private pilots who want all their study materials in one package instead of sourcing each book and tool separately, including self-paced students and flight schools standardizing materials. Jeppesen is trusted by aviation professionals worldwide. This kit ships free within the United States on orders over $100.
