Facing any of these problems?

On a Modular course and require some help with the theory?

Anxious at how you can no longer 'memorise the banks' due to the ever-changing question bank?

On an Integrated course which is forcing you through the theory too quickly?

Does your flight school really care about what results you get in your theory exams?

When your TKI teaches is it like they are speaking another language?

My Vision

  1. To bring a better standard of teaching to flight training
  2. To spread my 1-1 tuition skills to an unlimited amount of cadets via online courses and videos
  3. To end the stress of relying solely on the question banks

Course Description

This is an all-in-one course that covers all the Flight computer related content within the PPL -> ATPL exams. This includes the following subjects:


  1. General Navigation(CPL/ATPL)/Navigation(PPL)

  2. Flight Planning and Performance

  3. Mass and Balance

  4. Meteorology

  5. Performance

  6. Principles of Flight

  7. Aircraft General Knowledge


Here you will find real exam questions which have shown in EASA ATPL exams, along with topic specific flowcharts that can solve any PPL to ATPL exam question.


You will gain access to 1080p video walkthroughs of typical exam questions taught from the ground up. You will learn how to use both sides, the wind slide and also will be shown helpful tips on how to use your scientific calculator!


We will go through:


  1. Basic Arithmetic

    • Multiplication

    • Division

  2. Speed and Fuel Flow Calculations

    • The formulae

    • Helpful tips

  3. Scientific Calculator

    • Decimal to Hours: Minutes: Seconds conversions

  4. Converting Units

    • Approximate conversions to remember

    • Temperature

    • Distance

    • Time

    • Speed/Fuel Flow

    • Mass

    • Volume

    • Specific Gravity

  5. Airspeed and Altitude Calculations

    • TAS above and below 300kts

    • IAS, CAS

    • Mach Number

    • Ram Rise

    • True Altitude

    • Density Altitude

  6. Converting between different 'Norths'

    • True North

    • Magnetic North

    • Compass North

  7. Wind Side

    • Heading, Track, Drift, Wind Correction Angle, Wind Vector, TAS, Ground Speed

    • Triangle of Velocities

    • Iteration

    • Head Wind/Tail Wind

    • Crosswind components

  8. Cross-country Flight Planning

    • Filling out a Flight Plan

    • VFR Planning techniques

    • Fuel Planning

    • Interpolating the Wind from the given Weather

    • Standard Operating Procedures

    • Inflight Time and Fuel logging


There will be attached resources that will explain concepts needed to understand the flight computer, these include: The Speed and Fuel Flow Formulae and converting between different units; The required understanding of the Airspeed Indicator, Altimeter as well as different pressures, airspeeds and altitudes involved with them.


This course is suitable for both the 2016 and 2020 syllabus.

Who Am I?

I am a Ground School Instructor specialising with General Navigation (ATPL). I have 7 years tutoring experience working with ATPL/CPL/PPL cadets and GCSE/A-Level students (Maths and Physics). I graduated from the University of Sheffield with a first-class degree in Aerospace Engineering and A*A*A in Maths, Further Maths and Physics.

When I was in Ground School, time and time again I saw how the cadets and instructors were not on the same page. The instructor with decades of experience would try to explain something, the cadets would say 'What?' and then the instructor would just repeat what they said more slowly, not very helpful. All those years under their belt adds a false sense of thinking everything is obvious; this is a detriment to the struggling cadet.

I got tired of this so had to take action, my previous tutoring experience led me to step in and help my struggling course mates. Soon enough I was being invited around for dinner every day so I could tutor and show how to approach questions in the most understandable way.

I have permanently lost my class 1 medical, however will never lose my passion for aviation and teaching. After knowing I would not get my medical back, I took some time to recover and then created ATPL Approach. With my videos and courses I believe I can help many through their training.
