FAA Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) AMT Test Prep Program

September 1, 2023, the FAA changed the process of obtaining an A&P certificate from the Practical Test Standards to the newer Airman’s Certification Standards “ACS”. Part of the change was to focus on the missed knowledge questions subject areas on the written tests which would be a part of the oral examination given by the FAA examiners. This means if you get a high score on the written test the less questions on the oral test. Also, some of the questions on the written test have been changed and new ones have been added using FAA verbiage that don’t meet to the commercial products. 

If you have additional questions, contact our experience A&P, IA instructor Robert Cunningham. 

The changes by the FAA have caused us to adapt to the newer ACS standards to our program. 

The requirements to be authorized to test for your Airframe and Powerplant certificate has not changed. If you have attended a Part 147 “ATMS” school, received U.S. military documented training or met the 30-month experience required by the FAA you must be signed off with an FAA 8610-2 form to take the test.  

Because of changing times and higher cost in the economy, travel, lodging and dining out we have had to adapt our program to meet our students needs and cost.  

We are recommending that if you’re planning to attend our test prep program, you should have your three written tests; General, Airframe and Powerplant already completed before you come. Currently, Talogy, formally PSI test cost $175.00 USD per test. So, for all three written test the cost would be $525.00 USD.  

You are welcome to schedule your three written tests at our Lone Star Testing Center. 

To prep you for your oral and practical exam your cost would be: $699.00 USD for the week. After the week, if more time is needed than the cost would be pro-rated $169.80 per day not including weekends. 

By coordinating with the FAA Examiner, we should be able to schedule your test during your stay. The FAA Examiner fee is separate from our program. 

So why spend a fortune going to Tennessee when you save money in Conroe Texas. 

To schedule to attend our program we would require 50% down payment and all classes start on Monday. (All prices are subject to change) 

We take all major credit cards except American Express.
