Hi guys,
About to take my air-frame and general O&P. Curious as to how you guys studied for it? Did you do flash cards or just read the ORAL and practical study guide? Just looking for a few tips so I can be prepared!
Thanks
David

That is what I did. It's essentially the same as using flash cards, except that there is some risk in subconsciously seeing wrong answers. Flash cards are the way to go, they are even used by air force test pilots when preparing for test flights in new (to them) aircraft.
It worked for me too, but I know that flash cards are tried and true, and require more thought, and imbed the information in memory in a manner taught through all levels of schooling.
I believe the ASA is the most used one.
Oral like I said is right from the book. Practical could be working on a mag, installing a cylinder, banging a few rivets, calculating W&B etc.
ALWAYS ask for tech data on ANYTHING your asked to do, #1 it will show you how to do it, but he wants to see that you know to use the book. 43.13 has standard practices general torques for bolts if NOT in the manual. Attitude, be humble and ask questions, you do all that only a real dick for flunk you. Your not supposed to know all this stuff, an A&P is simply a license to learn.
