Computer Testing
"Knowledge tests" are an integral part of the FAA certification process. Previously called "written exams," the tests are administered using simple computer software.

One huge advantage over earlier methods is instant gratification--applicants receive grades immediately upon completion of the exams.

Sunrise is fully equipped to deliver FAA knowledge tests--to as many as four applicants at a time when necessary. The tests are available from our testing partner--CATS--shortly before actual testing is scheduled to begin and then removed electronically for security purposes upon completion.

Test applicants are required to present an endorsement from a CFI (certified flight instructor) attesting to their readiness to take a test.

There is a fee for the tests; retesting after failure (first time) is free.
