The Most Critical, Difficult to Retain & Useful Information

Overview

We get it, there's a mountain of knowledge to keep straight in order to ensure the safest flight possible. That's why we tirelessly scoured the FAR/AIM and picked the brains of flight instructors and flight students in order to establish the most critical, difficult to retain, and useful information for any pilot to have on hand at any time. We then compiled this information into a simple, organized, and attractive reference card which would not be oversized or obtrusive in the cockpit, or on the kneeboard, and finally had it digitally printed on the most durable and suitable material we could find.

We have never seen anything as useful, organized, and thorough on another reference card or kneeboard.

VFR card

Excellent resource for flight planning and in flight reference. Quality material should survive a long time !

Great to hear, Tim! That material is impressively durable and should definitely last.

Works wonders

Awesome

The card is very nice and strong.This is exactly what I was looking for. I was putting my own plans together and was struggling to make them look good. The lesson plans you have put together have helped me clean up my lessons to where I can actually teach with them.

FAQ

Let's clear up some common questions

Are there reference cards part of the downloads?

Nope, they're our physical products. We'll send them to you via USPS.

How do you ship the reference cards?

We ship FREE via first class USPS mail. USPS advertises 1-3 day shipping throughout the nation. Sadly, we don't provide tracking. Tracking for an envelope is prohibitively expensive.

Huge Thank You

I just wanted to take a moment to say a huge thank you to Backseat Pilot. Your products have been absolutely instrumental in my success as a CFI, CFII, and MEI. With over 1,200 hours of dual given, I can confidently say I wouldn’t be the instructor I am today without your resources. The clarity, structure, and real-world applicability of your tools made a huge difference — not just in my own development, but in how I train and support my students.

I'm proud to say I've earned my Gold Seal, and without a doubt, your materials played a big part in helping me get there.

Honestly, I almost feel guilty that you continue to update and improve your content and still make it available for free. It’s clear you're doing this for the love of aviation and the betterment of instructors everywhere.

Thank you for everything you do — it means more than you know.

Great start to lesson plans

I found the Keynote presentations a great start to my CFI preparation. I’m mostly done with the maneuvers and now working on the subject areas.
A couple of comments on the material:
1. Several of the lessons are too verbose or repetitive. For most of the lessons, I found myself condensing the verbiage down to about half the slides without loss of information.
2. The common errors are too cookie cutter. I’ve been prioritizing these based on bolded ones in the FAA docs, and what I find in my POH and Flight Ops Manual.
Overall, glad I bought these to have a starting point.

Extremely useful and helpful

These products save time through consolidation. Thanks for the help!

Great Product

I had seen the PTS version for CFI, but the ACS version is WAY better. Easy powerpoint, and used this to pass my CFI checkride. LOVE IT! I bought the whole bundle with CFI, CFII, and MEI. Worth it in the end, for sure!
